  • Page 18: Dual Installation Considerations

    CVC-151 VHF Communication System Installation Manual Section 2 – Installation C. Dual Installation Considerations (1) Reduction of cross radio interference by using Transmit Interlock feature. All radio transceivers have a noise floor associated with the transmitted output signal. When two or more radios are installed on the same aircraft, the transmitted noise floor can cause the squelch of a radio operating in receive to open if care is not taken to maximize the isolation between the antennas of the two systems.
