Assemble supplied mounting bracket and other parts. See . MOUNTING BRACKET ASSEMBLY. 5. Cut the mounting hole. See ⁄0 MARKING A MOUNTING HOLE. 6. Mount the transceiver into the mounting bracket. See ⁄1 MOUNTING TO THE BRACKET. 7. Check the transceiver operation. See ⁄2 OPERATION CHECK. Check operation after installation. Install the transceiver according to the procedures of this installation guide. The antenna should be spaced at least 40 cm (1.3 feet) from any position occupied by any person on board the aircraft or the vehicle. v PRECAUTIONS NEVER bend the cables sharply or place the cables too near the aircraft control cables. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using reverse polarity. Reverse polarity will damage the transceiver. DO NOT place the transceiver where hot or cold air blows directly on it. DO NOT place the transceiver in areas with temperatures below –20˚C or above +55˚C (–4˚F to +131˚F). To prevent voltage drops, solder or crimp the cable lug when connecting the DC power cable to the power supply. Use a 50 Ω, vertically polarized, VHF air band antenna. VSWR should be less than 2.5:1. Mount the antenna on a flat metal surface or install a ground plane of at least 120 cm2 (18 in2). b USING THE MBA-3 When installing the transceiver with card edge connector, use the optional MBA-3 as described below. D Attachment  he following items are required for installation but are NOT T supplied with the transceiver. • VHF antenna for the air communication band • Various cables • An antenna cable with a BNC connectors (50 Ω) • Switches to be mounted on the aircraft yoke • Headphones. (500 Ω) • Low-impedance carbon or dynamic microphone • Preamplifier for a dynamic microphone 1. U  nscrew the 10 bottom screws, then remove the bottom cover from the transceiver. 2. Unscrew the four rear plate screws. 3. D  isconnect the I/O cable connectors J3, J4, and coaxial J6, and then remove the rear plate from the transceiver. 4. C  onnect the I/O cable connectors and coaxial onto the MBA-3 as illustrated below. Transceiver J6 J4 Transceiver D COMM1 and COMM2 stickers When 2 transceivers are installed, attach the supplied COMM1 and COMM2 stickers to distinguish one from the another.

Mark and cut the mounting holes. To support the mounting bracket, the rear mounting bosses should be attached to the airframe. The transceiver can be mounted securely in the supplied mounting bracket. Remember to allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors. When installing 2 or more transceivers in a stack, the mounting bracket should be 1.3 mm (0.05″) apart. 1. 2. Remove the front panel from the transceiver’s main unit. - Use a 3⁄32″ allen driver. - Carefully disconnect the cable from the front panel. (Fig. 1) Insert a 3 ⁄ 32″ allen driver into the lock screw and rotate the driver counterclockwise until the metal catch touches the back of the lock chassis.
