Ground connection
The transceiver and antenna tuner MUST have an
adequate RF ground connection. Otherwise, the over-
all efficiency of the transceiver and antenna tuner in-
stallation will be reduced. Electrolysis, electrical
shocks and interference from other equipment could
also occur.
For best results, use 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 one ground point, otherwise the voltage difference
(in RF level) between 2 ground points may cause
electrolysis.

WARNING—
When grounding to a metal hull
Use Zinc anodes to protect the hull from electroly-
sis.
Ask your technical dealer, installer or refer to a
technical book, etc., for RF grounding details.
CAUTION: NEVER
connect the transceiver to a
“positive-grounded ship,” otherwise the transceiver
will not function.
