Ground connection
The transceiver and antenna tuner MUST have an
adequate RF ground connection. Otherwise, the
overall efficiency of the transceiver and antenna
tuner installation will be reduced. Electrolysis, electri-
cal shocks and interference from other equipment
could also occur.
For best results, use a 50 or 75 mm (2 or 3 inches)
wide copper strap, and make the connection as short
as possible. Ground the transceiver and antenna
tuner to the same ground point, otherwise the volt-
age difference (at the RF level) between two ground
points may cause electrolysis.

WARNING!
When grounding to a metal hull
Use Zinc anodes to protect the hull from electroly-
sis.
Ask your dealer, technical installer or refer to a
technical book, and so on, for RF grounding de-
tails.

Power source
The transceiver requires regulated DC power of 13.8
V and at least 28 A. There are two ways to supply
power:
• Direct connection to a 12 V battery in your vehicle
through the supplied DC power cable.
• Use a DC power supply connected to an AC outlet.
