.
Connect your transceiver to the same grounding system of your shack carefully! Use minimum length
cables and make certain that the connections are both physically and electrically sound. With poor
grounding, you may risk damaging your equipment, having problems with TVI/BCI or your transmitted
signal may be distorted.
4.2. Coaxial Cable
The output of the transceiver is to be connected to the input of the amplifier via RG58 or similar cable.
For the connection between the power amplifier and the antenna, RG213 or similar coaxial cable
suited for high power is recommended. At the INPUT and OUTPUT SO-239 sockets with Teflon
insulation are used.
