One fuse is installed in the DC power cable. If the fuse blows, 
track down the source of the problem, have it repaired, and 
replace the damaged fuse with a new one of the proper rat-
ing.

Fuse rating: 3 A

A key element in the performance of any communication sys-

tem is the antenna. The VHF AIS/radio antennas should be

mounted in a location that has a clear, unobstructed view in 
all directions and as far away from interference as possible, 
for  the  best  reception  and  transmission.  When  selecting  a 
mounting location, follow the guidelines below.

- Mount  the VHF  AIS/radio  antennas  at  least  3  m  (9.85  ft.)

away from each other.

- Mount the VHF AIS/radio antennas as high as possible.

- Be sure the location is out of the radar beam.
-  Be sure the location will not be shaded by a random antenna 

or mast.
