basic WX-950 System (see table 1-1) consists of the following equipment:
• Display/Processor P/N 805-10950-001 (Black Bezel) or P/N 805-10950-002 (Gray Bezel)
• NY-163 Antenna P/N 805-10930-001 (White) or P/N 805-10930-002 (Black)
• Installation Kit P/N 817-10950-001
• Antenna Cable (ordered separately). Antenna cables, with the antenna connector pre-wired to
one end, are available in 6, 12, 25, 50 and 75 ft. lengths (see table 1-2). To meet different space
requirements the antenna connector can be ordered with either a straight or right-angle
