Installation of Antennas
Always wear appropriate protective equipment, including a certified fall
arrestor harness and hardhat when working at heights to prevent injury to
personnel, or death. Prior to commencing any work on the mast, ensure
that all radar systems are switched off and isolated.
If the C-Nav7050 has either the IALA and/or the UHF option installed, it will come
with the antennas mentioned in Figure 4 (Page

Determining Proper Antenna Placement
UHF and Beacon antennas may be placed along handrails with a clear view
horizontally as the UHF and Beacon signals are land-based, rather than the
space-based GNSS and SBAS signals.
Antenna Installation
Once the antenna location has been determined based on the aforementioned
criteria, mount the antenna onto an antenna-mounting pole via the antenna
mounting pole adaptor. This should be done on deck prior to climbing the mast
as mounting the antenna aloft poses potential risks to personnel and equipment
due to possible dropped object hazards.
