Precautionsduringinstallation
Note the following when installing this radio.
Do not install the radio in a place where there is extreme vibration, where there is a
lot of dust, excessive humidity or high temperature, or where it is exposed to direct
sunlight.
Install the radio in a well ventilated position, so heat release is not obstructed
because the heat sink gets hot when transmitting for a long periods of time.
Do not place any objects on top of the main body.
Do not lift up or hold the controller by holding the knob or control cable.
A regulated, negative ground 13.8 V DC power supply is required for this radio.
Check that the car battery is a negative ground 12 V system when using this radio in
a mobile unit. Never connect this radio to the 24 V battery of a large vehicle.
Never connect this radio to a 120 V AC power source.
Note that there is a risk that hum and noise may be introduced, depending on the
installation condition and the external power source used.
Install the device as far away as possible from the TV and radio to avoid TV and radio
interference (TVI, BCI).
In particular, do not install this radio near indoor antenna elements.
Installation location when used in a mobile unit
Controller
It is recommended that the controller be installed on top of the car dash board or in front
of the center console. Refer to Page 28 on how to install the controller.
Mainbody
It is recommended that the main body be installed below the car dash board or to the
side of the center console. Refer to Page 27 on how to install the main body.

Abouttheantenna
A good antenna installation is extremely important for transmission and reception
purposes. Note the following, as the type and characteristics of the antenna largely
determines whether the performance of the radio can be fully realized.
Use an antenna that suits the installation conditions and application objective.
Use an antenna that suits the operating frequency band.
Use an antenna and a co-axial cable with a characteristic impedance of 50Ω.
Adjust the VSWR (standing wave ratio) until it is 1.5 or less for an antenna with an
adjusted impedance of 50Ω.
Keep the co-axial cable routing length as short as possible.
Install the antenna
Antennainstallationinamobileunit
Mount the antenna base at the rear of the car (rear bumper, trunk, rear gate, etc.) and
then attach the antenna to the base.
Cautions
zEnsure that the antenna base is securely grounded to the car body.
zAvoid routing the co-axial cable enclosed with a commercial car antenna cable.
zDo not allow rain water or moisture to penetrate the cable or connectors when laying the co-axial
cable inside the car.
Bumper type Trunk type
Antennainstallationinafixedstation
There are omni-directional, and directed array antennas for use in an outdoor setting.
Omni-directional antennas such as the GP (Ground Plane) antenna are suitable for
communications between a local station and mobile stations in all direction.
Directional antennas such as the Yagi antenna are suitable for communications
between a base station and a remote station in a specific direction.

Installation and Connection
InstallingtheRadio
Cautions
zCreate a loop (slack) in the co-axial cable directly underneath the antenna and fasten it so that the
weight of the cable does not pull on the antenna or connector itself.
zInstall the antenna taking into consideration the securing supports and how the guying wires are
positioned, so that the antenna does not fall over or get blown away in strong winds.
