3-1
UNPACKING
Carefully

from
the
packing
carton
and
examine
it
for
signs
of
shipping
damage.
Should
any
be
apparent,
notify
the
delivering
carrier
or
dealer
im-
mediately,
stating
the
full
extent
of
the
damage.
It
is
recommended
you
keep
the
shipping
cartons.
In
the

storage,
moving,
or
reshipment
becomes
necessary

RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR
INSTALLATION
1.
Avoid
placing
the
IC-701
in
direct
sunlight,
high
temperature,
dusty
or
humid
places.
2.
The
left
side
of
the
unit,
when
facing
it,
functions
also
as
a
heatsink.
The
temperature
there
will
usually
become
relatively
warm
during
transmission.
Any
equipment
should
be
at
least
1
inch
(83cm)
away
from
the
unit
so
as
to
provide
good
ventilation.
Be
sure
that
nothing
is
on
and
just
behind
the
rear
PA
heatsink
to
ensure
good
ventilation.
Also
avoid
places
near
outlets
of
heaters,
air
conditioners
etc.
3.
Place
the
unit
so
that
the
controls
and
switches
can
easily
be
handled
and
the
frequency
indication
and
meter
can
easily
be
read.
4.
For
mobile
installation,
an
optional
mounting
bracket
is
available.
Select
the
best
location
that
can
stand
the
weight
of
the
unit
and
that
does
not
interfere
with
your
driving
in
any
way.
5.
Use
the
Ground
Lug!
3-3
POWER
SUPPLY
For
AC
operation,
use
the
special
power
supply
!C-701PS.
If
you
would
like
to
use
your
car
battery
or
any
other
DC
power
supply,
be
sure
that
its
output
voltage
is
12-15
Volts
and
the
current
capacity
is
at
least
20
Amps.
The
maximum
power
consumption
of
the
set
during
transmission
runs
from
16-20
Amps,
so
keep
that
in
mind
if
the
unit
is
installed
in
your
automobile,
and
turn
it
on
after
you
have
started
the
engine.
Attention
should
also
be
paid
to
the
condition
of
the
battery
and
electrical
system.
The
connection
of
the
DC
power
cord
supplied
with
the
1C-701
is
done
in
the
following
way:
First
make
sure
that
the
power
switch
of
the
unit
is
in
the
OFF
position
and
the
T/R
switch
is
in
the
receive
position.
Connect
the
cord
to
the
DC
power
supply
with
the
RED
lead
to
the
positive
terminal
and
the
BLACK
lead
to
the
negative
terminal.
(Reverse
connection
will
cause
the
protection
circuit
to
operate
and
blow
the
fuse.)
Connect
the
DC
plug
to
the
socket
on
the
rear
panel
of
the
!C-701.
Refer
to
the

below.

ANTENNA
Antennas
play
a
very
important
role
in
radio
communi-
cation.
If
the
antenna
is
inferior,
your
transceiver
cannot
give
you
the
best
performance.
With
a
good
antenna
and
feeder
cable
having
50
ohm
impedance,
you
should
easily
get
the
desired
matching
and
performance.
Carefully
install
a
high
performance
antenna
that
suits
the
frequency
band(s)
you
wish
to
operate
on
and
place
it
as
high
as
possible.
Be
especially
careful
of
the
condition
of
the
connectors
as
loose
connections
will
deteriorate
the
per-
formance.
Be
sure
to
connect
the
ground
terminal
of
a
whip
antenna,
if
used,
to
the
body
of
your
car.
As
the
output
is
quite
high,
avoid
connecting
the
antenna
connector
to
open
lines
and
do
not
transmit
under
mismatched
conditions.
Otherwise
the
final
stage
could
be
overloaded
and
cause
a
malfunction
of
the
unit.
