Icom IC-M802 Installing page 12

Completed Equipment List for installed with Backstay System
OK The AT140 is as close to the antenna as possible.
OK/NA GTO-15 cable is used from tuner to antenna.
The GTO-15 cable is fed through the hull using a water tight feed
OK/NA
through/deck fitting/Clam Clamp.
OK/NA The GTO-15 cable to the backstay is isolated using standoffs.
The GTO-15 is connected using a good quality connection to the backstay
OK/NA
and protected from the environment with vulcanizing tape.
The GTO-15 cable to the backstay is the shortest route possible with no
OK/NA
additional wire coiled up between the tuner and the antenna.
The IC M802 power cable (OPC1107A) is connected directly to the battery
OK/NA
via a 30 amp MDL (slow blow) fuse within 7 inches. .
If the OPC1107A is not long enough to reach the battery, (#6) wire has
OK/NA been ran from the battery to the transceiver with a 40 amp fuse at the
battery and the ICOM 30 amp fuse at the transceiver.
OK/NA Battery Connections are crimped and soldered
The coaxial connectors (PL259) used on the cable between the transceiver
OK/NA
and the tuner are factory made and tested.
Or: Verify the PL259 connectors have been soldered at the center and the
OK
outer case if cable made locally
If coaxal cable has been constructed, verify the ohm meter readings on
OK/NA the cable have been recorded if coaxial cable was constructed locally and
are within specified values logged in step eight.
The coaxial cable connection at the tuner have been wrapped with shrink
OK/NA
tubing or vulcanizing tape.
Ferrite cores have been installed and the cable is looped through twice at
OK/NA
both ends of the antenna tuner control cable.
An RF Isolator or preferably (5) ferrite cores have been installed at the RF
OK/NA
output of the transceiver.
(5) Snap on Ferrite Cores are installed at the tuner end of the
OK
RG8U/RG213 coax with tie wraps installed over them
The control head and Speaker cables have been tie wrapped to the side of
OK/NA
the transceiver case.
