Mounting And Powering The Radio
•
Before using your CobraMarine VHF radio, it must be installed on your vessel.
Installing Your Radio
Choose a location for your radio where it will be conveniently accessible with the
following factors in mind:
■
The leads to the battery and the antenna are best kept as short as possible.
■
The antenna must be mounted at least 3 feet from the transceiver.
■
The radio and all speakers need to be far enough from any magnetic
compass to avoid deviation due to the speaker magnet.
■
There needs to be free air flow around the heat-sink fins on the back
of the transceiver.
Surface Mount
A Surface Mounting kit is included with your CobraMarine VHF radio to allow its
installation on almost any flat surface.
To Mount The Transceiver
On Almost Any Flat Surface:
1. Use the mounting bracket
as a template to drill holes
for the mounting screws.
2. Attach the mounting bracket
to the chosen surface.
3. Attach the transceiver to
the mounting bracket with
the locking knobs.
4. Tilt the transceiver to
a convenient angle and
tighten the locking knobs.
