CONNECTION AND INSTALLATION
■ Antenna
Most stations operate with a whip or long wire (insu-
lated backstay) antenna. However, these antennas
cannot be connected directly to the transceiver since
their impedance may not be matched with the trans-
ceiver antenna connector.
R WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE!
NEVER touch the antenna element/wire while tun-
ing or transmitting.
With a 50 Ω matched antenna all HF bands cannot be
used. The following antenna matcher or antenna tuner
may be helpful for antenna installation.
