Preface
Radio for occupational use
The SAILOR 6300B MF/HF DSC fulfils the requirements of the SOLAS directive and is intended for use in maritime
environment.
SAILOR 6300B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and must be operated by licensed personnel only.
SAILOR 6300B MF/HF DSC is not intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public.
Training information (for FCC approved equipment)
The SAILOR 6300B MF/HF DSC is designed for occupational use only and is also classified as such. It must be operated by licensed personnel only. It must only be used in the course of employment by individuals aware of both
the hazards as well as the way to minimize those hazards.
The radio is thus NOT intended for use in an uncontrolled environment by general public. The SAILOR 6300 MF/HF
DSC has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. The radio also complies with the following guidelines and standards regarding RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels including
the recommended levels for human exposure:
•
•
•
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, evaluating compliance with FCC guidelines for human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic fields.
American National Standards Institute (C95.1) IEEE standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz
American National Standards Institute (C95.3) IEEE recommended practice for the measurement of potentially
hazardous electromagnetic fields - RF and microwaves.
Below the RF exposure hazards and instructions in safe operation of the radio within the FCC RF exposure limits
established for it are described.
Warning
Your Thrane & Thrane radio set generates electromagnetic RF (radio frequency) energy when it is transmitting. To
ensure that you and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of that energy (beyond FCC allowable
limits for occupational use) and thus to avoid health hazards from excessive exposure to RF energy, FCC OET bulletin
65 establishes an Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) radius of 6 ft. (1.8 m) for the maximum power of your radio
(150 W selected) with a whip antenna having a maximum gain of 3.0 dBi.
The safety distance from the antenna is stated to:
Antenna
98-144591-A
Safety distance
150W
6 ft. which are equal to 184 cm > 156 cm
250W
7 ft. which are equal to 215 cm > 201 cm
500W
10 ft. which are equal to 307 cm > 285 cm
Installation
1.
A whip antenna with a maximum gain of 3 dBi must be mounted at least 12.6 ft. (3.9m) above the highest deck
where people may be staying during radio transmissions. The distance is to be measured vertically from the
lowest point of the antenna. This provides the minimum separation distance which is in compliance with RF
exposure requirements and is based on the MPE radius of 6 ft. (1.8m) plus the 6.6 ft. (2.0 m) height of an adult.
2.
On vessels that cannot fulfil requirements in item 1, the antenna must be mounted so that its lowest point is
at least 6 ft. (1.8m) vertically above the heads of people on deck and all persons must be outside the 6 ft. (1.8
m) MPE radius during radio transmission.
• Always mount the antenna at least 6 ft (1.8 m) from possible human access.
3.
•
Never touch the antenna when transmitting
•
Use only authorized T&T accessories.
If the antenna has to be placed in public areas or near people with no awareness of the radio transmission, the
antenna must be placed at a distance not less than 12 ft. (3.6 m) from possible human access.
Failure to observe any of these warnings may cause you or other people to exceed FCC RF exposure limits or create
other dangerous conditions.

General information
1.1 Introduction
The 150 W/250 W/500 W MF/HF transceiver with integrated DSC and telex (NBDP) is designed for maritime applications in voluntary as well as compulsorily fitted vessels. It offers simplex and semi-duplex
SSB radiotelephone communication in the maritime mobile frequency bands between 1.6 and 30 MHz.
The basic version of the transceiver includes voice, DSC and a dedicated 2187.5 KHz DSC watch receiver,
forming an ideal system for MF GMDSS installations.
The equipment consists of a compact transceiver control unit, a fully remote controlled transceiver unit
and an automatic antenna tuning unit.
The microprocessor controlled Antenna Tuning Unit automatically matches the impedance of antennas
between 8 and 18 metres in length and requires no presetting at the installation. It is designed for outdoor
installation and may be located up to 100 metres from the Transceiver Unit.
The Transceiver Unit contains all receiver and transmitter circuits. The fully protected solid state 150 W/
250 W /500 W power amplifier matches a 50 ohm antenna system, but is normally used in connection
with the Antenna Tuning Unit. The DSC/Telex modem contains two demodulators, one connected to the
built-in watch receiver for continuous watch on the DSC distress frequencies, the other connected to
the communication receiver which may be used to keep simultaneous watch on other DSC frequencies
or telex communication.
The transceiver can be upgraded to scan 6 DSC channels, and Telex operation to comply with MF/HF
requirements in sea area A4. Codes are purchased as accessories for the system.
The Control Unit is for operation of radiotelephony as well as DSC and configuration. Use of the equipment is simple, logic and straight forward. DSC operation is based on the use of soft keys. Guiding texts
are provided and the large display is able to show the contents of a complete call in one screen.
For telex operation the Message Terminal must be connected to the system via the CAN bus.
The equipment is designed for operation from a 24 V DC supply, like e.g. a battery. With the optional AC
Power Supply unit installed the equipment may be supplied from 115/230 V AC main or emergency supplies with automatic switch-over to 24 V DC supply in the absence of AC supply voltage. Also optionally, a
battery charger for AC is available in the product line.
The built-in test facilities and easy-to-replace module design of the equipment simplifies the service concept.

Dissipated heat:
The dissipated heat in standby RX mode is typically 45 W depending on
attached ancillary equipment.
In transmit mode, use the consumption figures for the appropriate mode,
multiplied by 0.66.
E.g. 0.66 x 175 W = 115.5 W dissipated heat for a 150 W system in SSB
speech mode.
For a figure in kilocalories (kcal), multiply dissipation effect by on-time in
hous and then by 0.860.
For the 150W system, e.g. 115.5 W x 2 h + 45 W x 22 h (TX 2 hours + RX
22 hours a day) = 1221 Wh. 1221 Wh x 0.860 ~ 1050 kcal a day.

2.2.4 Recommended ATU installation
On a metal-hull vessel
Install the ATU on an ATU Mounting Kit. The kit is stainless steel which can be bolted or welded to ship's
hull to ensure good and solid connection in the radio system primary ground point.
The mounting kit will at the same time ensure straight and flat mounting for the ATU cabinet and provide
good airflow around the ATU for better heat dissipation.
Install the ATU on an ATU Mounting Kit. The kit is stainless steel which can be bolted to ship's hull
and then provide a ground plane connection to ensure good and solid connection in the radio system
primary ground point.
The ground plane should normally be provided in as wide surface as possible with shortest possible
connection to ships earth connection to the water surface.
Alternatively and in case of long ground connections the grounding should be arranged in a solid and
shielded cable connection where sufficient cable square material to provide the connection and the
shielding connected to ATU Mounting Kit and left open at earth connection side.
ATU Mounting Kit
An optional ATU Mounting Kit as shown below is available in two versions:
1. Comprises of mounting plate and fittings for mast - part no. 737589
For mounting the ATU directly on a mast, where the Mounting Plate and fittings for mast can form a
sufficient earth connection on a steel mast welded to the superstructure.
2. Comprises of the mounting plate only - part no. 737588

Ground connections
2.3.1 Grounding considerations
Proper system grounding is one of the most important installation details.
Two areas of grounding must be considered:
Each area requires separate considerations even though they are interrelated. Ideally the Control Unit,
Transceiver Unit, Antenna Tuning Unit and the antenna ground-plane must have the same RF ground
potential. Unfortunately this situation is seldomly achieved, but interference problems will be reduced
along with how close to this “ideal” the grounding of the installation is performed.
On some installations ground loops will cause problems. A ground loop is caused by more than one
ground path for a given unit. This will introduce circulating RF currents which may cause malfunction
of other equipment onboard the ship as well as a “hot” handset.

2.3.3 Minimizing ground loops
By routing the coax cable very close together with the ATU ground strap (secure good RF coupling
between the two) all the way down to the ground-plane, there will be no RF ground loop left to generate

2.3.4 Antenna start
The vertical antenna always starts at its electrical ground-plane, whether or not it is physically mounted
there. First determine the antenna’s electrical ground-plane, which is where the ATU must be mounted.
Where possible always take the ATU to the ground, not the ground to the ATU.
In case of a fibreglass boat, the ground-plane may well be at the hull grounding terminal. Then this is
where the Antenna Tuning Unit should go and this is where the antenna actually starts.

As the earth connection of a transmitter is a very imCopper strap cut-out at the ATU end
portant part of the antenna system, it is of the
utmost importance to keep in mind that the earth connection of the Antenna Tuning Unit must
have the lowest possible RF-impedance. Losses in the
earth connection will result in a decrease in
radiated power which means that the range of the
transmitter will be reduced. In steel ships a 100 x
0.5 mm copper strap as short as possible is connected

structure and will provide the best possible none corroding connection.
Vessels constructed of non-conducting materials must be equipped with a copper earth plate having a
minimum area of 1 square metre mounted below the water line. From a copper earth bolt hard soldered
to the earth plate a 100 x 0.5 mm copper strap is run, preferably uninterrupted to the earth terminal at
the bottom of the Antenna Tuning Unit.
Should it be necessary to break the copper strap, for example to pass through a deck, two or three 1/2"
or M12 bolts should be used for this feed through.
On wooden ships having a superstructure of metal,
this superstructure should also be effectively conShielded ground downlead
nected to the copper strap by using stainless steel
bolts and preferably pieces of stainless steel strips
between the metal parts.
On fibre glass boats, such as yachts and sailing boats,
it may be difficult to install a sufficiently good earth.
Short copper straps are bolted to conducting parts
on the engine, the keel and other conducting objects.
Many copper straps can be glued to the inner surface
of the hull below the water line to produce a large
capacitance to the water.
It is important that the total area of copper is large
and that the distance between the copper surface and
the water is as small as possible. The copper straps
are connected directly to the ATU.
On ships where the environmental conditions require shielded grounding downlead in order to avoid
radiation from same downlead, it is recommended
to use a shielded cable with a non-stranded wire
having adequate wire dimension to secure the proper
grounding. Cable shielding should be connected the
earth terminal at the bottom of the Antenna Tuning
Unit and left open at the earth connection side.
2.3.6 Transceiver Unit and Control Unit
The Transceiver Unit is preferably grounded
separately to the ships metal in the shortest
possible way. A 10mm² (AWG 7) to 16mm²
(AWG 5) ground wire is connected to the
ground terminal (cable clamp) at the bottom of the unit.

2.4.1 Transceiver Antenna
The equipment is used with separate transmitting and receiving antennas. The antennas should be
erected in the open, away from conducting object such as derricks etc. which may cause reduction of
the radiated power. Insulators should be of the best type having low leakage even when wet. Stays,
wires, steel masts etc. should be either effectively earthed or insulated. The antenna should also be kept
as far away as possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such
as cable braiding (screens) and instruments in the vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively,
and the instruments in question should be fitted with noise-interference suppression devices, effective
in the range 0.1 MHz to 30 MHz to avoid malfunction of these instruments. The Antenna Tuning Unit
will tune on any frequency in the range 1.6 to 27 MHz to good whip and/or wire installations of 12 to
18 m total electrical length.
Shorter antennas, electrical length down to 8 m can be used. Where possible long antennas should be
installed to maximize the radiated power in the lower frequency bands.
In general a 12 m antenna installation can be made using an 8 metres whip and 4.5 m feeder or a 10 m
whip and 2.5 m feeder. In both cases the whip should be mounted on a pole allowing for the feeder to be
erected at an angle of no less than 60 degrees
to create a vertical antenna system. Using
horizontal feeders or feeders mounted at an
angle below 45 degrees usually transform the
antenna radiation resistance to a lower value
reducing the radiated power. Furthermore,
the total antenna system should be kept well
away from conductive objects such as the
mast. Usually a horizontal distance of more
than 4 metres will create good results.

Chapter 2: Installation
The antenna is terminated at the insulator at
the top of the Antenna Tuning Unit. The insulator must be relieved from mechanical stress
by using max. 1 meter flexible wire between
the insulator and a support. To maximize the
radiated power and avoid flash over keep
distance to metal parts as long as possible.
All wire junctions in the antenna system
must be made with cable lugs of correct size
according to the wire gauge. This will prevent
bad connections due to corrosion. For further
corrosion proofing grease may be applied to
the cable joints.

Antennas
2.4.2 Considerations on antenna length requirements
The length of the transmitting antenna used with MF/HF equipment in general and the MF/HF equipment specifically for purpose of this discussion is of utmost importance for the proper performance of
the equipment, i.e. the ability to tune properly to the antenna and the effective transmission range. In
terms of transmission range, more important than increasing the transmitter RF output power from say
150 W to 250 W is in fact the use of an adequate length antenna.
Comparatively, any practical length whip antenna remains by far too short for the wavelength for which
it is used, especially at the lower frequencies. For the frequency range 1.6 – 30 MHz defining the commercial MF/HF marine band, the wavelength spans the range 190 – 10 m approximately.
A proper ground plane for the transmitting antenna is essential in order for this to effectively radiate
power into the air. When applying RF energy to the whip antenna, the presence of the ground plane
creates capacitance between the whip antenna and the ground plane. This capacitance will vary with
frequency, hence, the impedance of the whip antenna as seen from the transmitter will vary with the
frequency range over which the transmitter is operated.

Antenna impedance
Antennas
Function of the Antenna Tuning Unit (ATU)
The MF/HF transmitter power amplifier (PA) provides a fixed output impedance of 50 ohms over its
operating frequency range to which the load (the antenna) should be matched (i.e. load should preferably be 50 ohms also) in order for the transmitter to deliver its full power output to the load. However,
with the varying impedance of an antenna, as described above such a condition may only be met at
one or - at best - a few specific frequencies. On the remaining frequencies within the transmission band
the varying mismatch between the transmitter fixed output impedance and the different impedance of
the antenna at any given frequency will result in reduced RF power delivered to the antenna – in worst
case hardly any power at all - if the antenna was connected directly to the transmitter.
To overcome the frequency dependant mismatch between the transmitter output impedance and the
antenna (load) impedance, the ATU is put into the antenna circuit to provide variable compensation
counteracting the varying impedance of the antenna, the end result of which is the “transformation” of
this into a “fixed” app. 50ohms load, as “seen” by the transmitter.
The compensation is achieved mainly through the introduction of an induction in series with the antenna
circuit, the value of which will create a resonance circuit at the given frequency. Hence, depending on
the impedance of the antenna (i.e. the transmission frequency) a suitable combination of inductors from
a bank of inductors in the ATU, are selected through of a number of relays, the activation of which is
controlled by the ATU processor during the tuning process.
MF/HF ATU
For the impedance of e.g. an 8 metres transmitting antenna of 5-j800 ohms at 2 MHz, as stated by the
manufacturer, the ATU will easily tune to the impedance of this antenna system - in fact, the array of
coils in the ATU tuning circuitry allows tuning all the way down to the impedance of 4-j1060 ohms of
this antenna system at 1.6 MHz. A slightly shorter antenna system might be used at the possible sacrifice
of the ability to tune at the extreme low end of the frequency band below 2 MHz.
However the impedance of the antenna system is, influenced by any nearby metallic objects such as
the vessel's superstructure and/or nearby metal poles/masts or stays/wires. Consequently, in order not
to alter the impedance of the antenna system which may eventually cause difficulties for the ATU to
match the resulting impedance, the transmitting antenna should be kept at a distance of no less than
4 m from any such objects. Similarly goes for the feed wire connecting the ATU to the antenna which
should be kept at a minimum of 1 m from metallic objects.
It should be noted that even though the ATU will tune to the mentioned antenna system length, the effective radiated power (i.e. the efficiency of the antenna) in the low frequency end will suffer compared
to longer antenna systems of recommended electrical length 10-18 m.

Antennas
Antenna system installation in practice
Installation
As noted on the impedance figures in above table,
the measurements were made with the antenna
raised on a 2 m steel pipe over a flat steel roof
(ground plane) and a 2 m feed line. This implies
that the measured impedance is in fact that of the
actual antenna (electrical) length plus additional 2
m. The electrical length of the 8 m bracket mount
(side fed) Comrod transmitter antenna is 6.8 m
resulting in a total electrical length of the antenna
system of 8.8 m.
Electrical specifications transmitting antennas
The connection to the transmitting antenna is by a
single ended wire - the feed line - connecting from
the ATU top connector. This feed line adds to the
electrical length of the antenna (when correctly
installed), thus in effect increasing the efficiency
of the antenna. The longer the feed line the better
the efficiency of the antenna system consisting of
transmitting antenna and the feed line.
For direct addition of feed line length to antenna
electrical length the feed line should be vertically
installed as an extension downwards of the transmitting antenna. In practice, where the ATU must be
placed between the feed line and the ground plane
(steel deck), the direct vertical installation of the
feed wire may be difficult in terms of total height.
This may partly be accounted for by allowing the
feed wire installed at an angle of at least 45 degrees
towards the horizontal plane. Installing the feed wire
at lower angles will create capacitance to the ground
plane decreasing the efficiency of the antenna.
>45°
>1 meter
2.4.3 Receiver antenna
The receiver antenna may be an active or a passive type.
The antenna should be erected well in the clear and kept away as far as possible from electrical equipment in order to minimize noise. Electrical installation such as cable braiding and instruments in the
vicinity of the antenna should be earthed effectively, and the instruments in question should be fitted
with noise-interference suppression devices, effective in the range 0.1 to 30 MHz. The antenna feed-in
should be coaxial cable.
In case of a passive antenna the feed-in should be as short as possible, especially in the case of short
antennas. The recommended antenna length is 7-30 meters. If a long coax cable is necessary an impedance matching transformer should be inserted at the antenna or an active antenna should be used.
DC supply voltage for an active antenna is available at the RX antenna connector after switching is on
in service interface. The supply voltage is +12 V (60 mA). The RX port is short circuit protected.
The receiver antenna should be mounted as far from the transmitter antenna as possible - recommended
minimum 6 metres.
For active RX antennas, it is recommended to choose a physical length ≥1 meter.

designed for 3 wire shielded power supply cable to meet international installation and EMC requirements.
The safety ground wire is connected to the terminal showing ground symbol and shielding connected
to the cable fitting shown in page 2-3 must be well grounded to ships hull.
The earth connection of the equipment will not cause the battery to be earthed. Maximum permissible
peak voltage between the battery terminals and earth is 100 V.
Fusing must be provided in the supply leads for cable protection.

The circuit operates with a minimum
differential input voltage of 2 volts
and draws less than 2 mA from the
line at that voltage. The maximum
voltage is 15 volts.
Interconnection between devices may be by means of two-conductor shielded twisted-pair cable.
Multiple listeners may be connected to a single talker. The receivers are connected in parallel. The shield
should be connected to the navigator chassis and should not be connected at any listener. However the
shield should be continuous (unbroken) between all listeners.

PA and Filters module 60-122881
The PA and Filters module includes PA drivers, PA-stage, protection circuits, bias circuits, key circuit and five lowpass filters with relays and relay drivers. The PA and Filters receive the modulated RF input signal from the RX/EX
Signal Path and delivers the amplified and filtered output signal to the TX/RX connector via a receive/transmit relay
on the Control/Intercon module.
The low-pass filters remove the unwanted harmonic frequencies from the PA signal. The Filpeak and PAprotec outputs
are monitoring signals for the Control/Intercon module. The driver and final power amplifier stages are galvanically
isolated on input and output as they are supplied directly from the 24 V DC input. The selection of low-pass filter is
controlled by the Control/Intercon module.

The supply for the PA is 45 V, and is switched on with the HT On connection. A reduced voltage for the PA is available in Telex-mode.
A fan blower control circuit is also employded. As the PA and / or the SMPS heats up, the fans will be activated.
Should the temperature reach unsafe levels, the power for the PA will be switched off.
3.10 Antenna Tuning Unit
3.10.1 ATU module 60-122883 (150 W/250 W)
The ATU module comprises of a tuning network, measuring system and micro-controller circuits. The ATU module
matches the impedance of the antenna to 50 ohm in order to gain the best possible SWR towards the TU. The TU
communicates tuning process and frequency information with the ATU. The tuning network consists of capacitor bank
1, capacitor bank 2, and an inductor bank. With these banks it is possible to form either an L-network or a pi-network.
The capacitor banks and inductor bank are built up by binary related capacitors and coils. The setting of capacitance
and inductance is accomplished by relays. To prevent overload of the relays, current detectors are incorporated in
the inductor bank and in capacitor bank 2 and information fed back to the transceiver unit to decrease the output
power if maximum permissible current is exceeded. To prevent overheating a temperature sensor is incorporated
which at excessive temperatures commands the transceiver to reduce the output power.
In receive mode an RX-Amplifier included in the Antenna Tuning Unit is utilized, to improve the sensitivity of the
system by providing 50 ohm impedance. This is only used when connected to a 6000A MF/HF System.

3.11 Power control and protection system
The Transceiver has an automatic power level system, which ensures that optimum power is delivered to the Antenna. The Tune Sequence, which is automatically initiated when keying the transmitter after a frequency change,
makes the Tuning Network of the Antenna Tuning Unit tune to the best obtainable SWR. This is followed by an
Automatic Level Control (ALC) adjustment according to the available power supply voltage, measuring the output
current of the PA Filters (FILPEAK @ 10 Vp at full output), transmitting AM carrier, and setting the overall gain by
the ALC voltage. It is now possible to transmit at full output power unless protection is activated or LOW POWER is
selected. The output power is continuously monitored by the TU, and is automatically adjusted during transmission
to provide reliable communication.
3.11.1 Power Amplifier Protection
The protection of the power amplifier consists of V+I protection, SWR protection, and thermal protection. When
the output signal of the voltage detector at the output of the power amplifier exceeds 10 V the output power is
reduced to a safe level. The thermal protection consist of a temperature sensor on the power amplifier. The available
power supply voltage is measured in the DC power supply and the information is transferred to the ECM module.
If the supply voltage drops the microprocessor will adjust the output power to keep distortion below the limits.
3.11.2 Antenna Tuning Unit Protection
The ATU is protected by several detectors all monitored by the ATU's microprocessor, which calculates the SWR,
temperature, maximum voltage and current. If these parameters are not below safe operating limits it requests for
lower power.

4.1 Preventive maintenance
Due to the modern design of the transceiver preventive maintenance can be reduced to a minimum
provided the equipment is correctly installed. To ensure maximum performance and minimum repair
trouble we recommend following the below stated items for preventive maintenance:
1. The condition of the battery should be checked at frequent intervals.
2. Check the condition of antenna installation, ground connection and cables at regular intervals.
Salt deposits on insulators must be removed with water to avoid flash-over when transmitting.
3. Keep antenna feed-through insulators clean.
4. Ensure that no objects are obstructing the free airflow through the cooling channels of the Transceiver
Unit and keep the units free of dust accumulation to prevent overheating.
5. For cleaning use a damp cloth. Sticky dirt may be removed using a cloth with a weak soap solution.
Wipe off with a clean cloth.
The transceiver unit uses 2 fans to cool all circuitry inside the unit. To keep the cooling air clean an air
filter is placed in front of each fan. These air filters should be cleaned frequently, especially under dusty
working conditions. A clogged air filter will block efficient cooling and the transmitter output power will
be reduced to avoid over-heating.
Remove the air filter cover from the buttom of the transceiver unit by gently pushing towards right and
pulling it out from the cabinet. Take out the air filters from the cover. Clean the air filters refit and reassemble the unit.
