ANTENNA INSTALLATION
For best all round performance of the radiotelephone the antenna should be mounted on the
centre of the vehicle roof. Alternative positions, such as guard mounted will give degraded
performance.
The coaxial feeder should be secured along its length to eliminate any possibility of damage by
sharp edges or moving parts. Check the feeder for insulation and continuity.
5.4
DC SUPPLY CONNECTION
The radio supply should be connected to the vehicle battery as a continuous unbroken run, with
the earth lead connected to the chassis end of the battery earth braid. This is to protect the
radio equipment in the event of the battery becoming disconnected.
The leads contain in-ine fuse holders, and fuses of the correct rating must be fitted.
In the case of 24 volt do supply vehicles, an approved 24VI12V converter must be used. The
supply should not be taken from a 12 volt tap on the battery supply.
