Radio - Radio Power System

The UHF/VHF radio is the only type of radio that requires an external power source.

Power is supplied to the radio via a 5-pin Lemo connector that serves as both the

power and RS232 port. This connector is found on the rear panel of the radio. The

cable supplying power to the radio also serves as the RS232 cable which connects to

the GPS receiver. Therefore, the cable is shaped like a Y, with the base of the Y con-

necting to the radio and the two remaining ends connecting to the power source and

the receiver.

The battery end of the cable is fitted with alligator clips, allowing the flexibility to con-

nect to any type of power source.
