Transceiver Location
Select the mounting location for the transceiver considering the following:
! Though the equipment is spray-proof, prolonged exposure to the environment can shorten its life. It is
recommended to install the equipment in the cabin or at least in a shaded place.
! The equipment should be located as near to the power source as possible, and as far apart as possible
from any devices that may cause interference such as direction finders, navigation receivers and other
onboard electronics.
! The cabinet of the equipment, especially the rear panel, gets warm after a long transmission.
Therefore, provide some space around the transceiver to allow for circulation of cooling air.
