ground of the AC mains. (the AC-PLUG will not be supplied with the amplifier) The blue
and brown wires are the powerleads. Please take care that the groundlead be cut a bit longer
than the power leads (blue and brown) at installing the plug.

used should be of large diameter and run to a good earth ground.

to the transceiver socket, providing "ground on transmit".
