CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION

2001 NEW

2001 NEW

Antenna

Most stations operate with a whip or long wire (insu-
lated backstay) antenna. However, these antennas
cannot be connected directly to the transceiver since
their impedance will not be matched with the trans-
ceiver antenna connector.

R

DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE!

NEVER

touch the antenna element/wire while tun-

ing or transmitting.

Antenna wire

AT-141

Power source

The transceiver requires a regulated DC power of
13.2 V and at least 60 A, or 26.4 V and at least 30 A,
depending on version.
• Direct connection to a 12 V or 24 V battery in your

ship through the supplied DC power cable.

R

WARNING! NEVER

connect the transceiver to a

battery using reverse polarity. This will damage the
transceiver.

CATION:

Before connecting the transceiver main

unit to a battery, make sure the transceiver input
voltage suits to the battery voltage.

DC power cable connection

NOTE: Use terminals for the cable connection.

• Weatherproof cap attachment

Attach the supplied weatherproof cap for each posi-
tive and negative line at the DC power terminal as
shown below.
