identified. Follow the guidelines identified in Remote Control Antenna Placement on page 28
when considering a location for the antenna. If no suitable location can be found for the antenna,

OUTING
Route the wire according to industry guidelines. Avoid routing AV-350 cables with critical
aircraft wiring or with other transmitter antenna cables. The remote control antenna cable should
be at least 18 inches and no more than 50 feet. Longer cables may be used, but will result in
reduced range to the remote control.
