Installation
2-12 HF SSB transceiver reference manual
Grounding
A good ground (RF earth) is essential for efficient
transceiver operation. A chassis ground is provided on the
rear panel of the transceiver.
Use a copper braid of at least 12mm width to ground the
transceiver.
The control head may also require earthing to prevent RF
interference corrupting its data and audio circuits. To do
this, check that the mounting bracket is earthed by ensuring
that the screws holding the mounting bracket are not
insulated. It may be necessary to remove paint from around
the mounting screws to ensure a good contact.
