Envoy™ Transceiver Getting Started Guide

Overview of mobile stations

A mobile station typically consists of a transceiver, a 12 V DC 
power supply (battery), an antenna, control and accessory devices, 
ancillary equipment, and appropriate connecting cables. The 
antenna is connected to the transceiver by coaxial cable. An 
automatic tuning antenna also requires a control cable connected to 
the transceiver.

When space is limited in a mobile situation, the transceiver may be 
located in the boot or behind/under a seat.
