Antenna Requirements
and Attachment
WARNING
Do not transmit when anyone is within the MPE radius of the antenna unless
that person or persons are shielded from the antenna by a grounded metallic
barrier. This is especially important on vessels with antennas mounted as
described in B where no one may be within 9 ft (2,8 m) horizontally from the
base of the antenna during transmissions.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ABOVE LIMITS MAY EXPOSE THOSE WITHIN
THE MPE RADIUS TO RF ENERGY ABSORPTION IN EXCESS OF THE FCC
MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE. IT IS THE RADIO OPERATOR’S
RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT MPE LIMITS ARE HEEDED AND THAT
NO ONE IS WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS DURING TRANSMISSIONS.
Antenna Lead Attachment
Once the antenna is installed, the Coaxial Cable Lead can
be attached to the coaxial cable socket at the back of the
transceiver.
NOTICE
Attempting to transmit without an antenna attached
will damage your CobraMarine VHF radio.
External Devices and Connections
•
Your CobraMarine VHF radio is set up to connect auxiliary devices for navigation,
convenience and added versatility. As is the case with the antenna, choosing these
devices is best done with the advice and guidance of a knowledgeable dealer.
Standard connectors are provided on the front and back of the transceiver.
NMEA Communication Cable
Your CobraMarine Radio is set up with an NMEA communication port that allows the
radio to communicate with other electronic equipment such as a GPS Chartplotter,
Depth Sounder, Auto Pilot, DSC VHF Radio, Radar and Personal Computer with the
ability to display information. This capability allows for the operator to do Position
Polling and Position Requests directly from the radio. The NMEA input and output
leads are directed through the NMEA communication port.
External Speaker (Not Included)
An External Speaker can provide greater volume to hear messages than the speaker
in the transceiver.
To Install an External Speaker:
1. Connect the speaker positive (+) wire to the orange wire coming out of the
standard speaker/PA wire harness.
2. Connect the speaker negative (-) wire to the black/white wire coming out of the
standard speaker/PA wire harness.
