Mounting and Powering the Radio
Before using your CobraMarine VHF radio, it must be installed on your vessel.
Installing Your Radio
Choose a location for your radio where it will be conveniently accessible with the
following factors in mind:
The leads to the battery and the antenna should be as short as possible.
The antenna must be mounted at least 3 ft (0,9 m) from the transceiver.
The radio and all speakers need to be far enough from any magnetic
compass to avoid deviation due to the speaker magnet.
There needs to be free air flow around the heat-sink fins on the back
of the transceiver.
Surface Mount
A Surface Mounting kit is included with your CobraMarine VHF radio to allow its
installation on almost any flat horizontal surface.
To Mount the Transceiver
on Almost any Flat Surface:
1. Use the mounting bracket as a template
to drill holes for the mounting screws.
2. Attach the mounting bracket to the
chosen surface with the mounting
bracket screws and washers.
3. Attach the transceiver to the mounting
bracket with the Tilt Lock knobs.
4. Tilt the transceiver to a convenient
angle and tighten the Tilt Lock knobs.
