Page 10: Mounting Of Antenna Coupler
1.2 Mounting of Antenna Coupler The antenna coupler is installed between the antenna and the transceiver, and tunes the antenna to the transmitter. Mounting considerations The splashproof construction of the antenna coupler permits installation indoors or outdoors. When selecting a location, keep in mind the following points: •... - Page 11 Mounting the antenna coupler Mounting methods The antenna coupler can be fixed to the floor, bulkhead, or on the overhead. For mounting on the bulkhead, floor or overhead, fix the coupler with either tapping screws or M6 nuts, bolts and washers.

Page 13: Ground System
1.3 Ground System A good antenna can work well only when it is connected to an efficient rf ground. Without a good ground system, the full potential of this radio cannot be realized. CAUTION Ground the equipment to prevent electrical shock and mutual interference. -
Page 14: Mounting Of Antenna
1.4 Mounting of Antenna About antennas The antenna plays the most important role in radio communication. If it cannot receive or transmit effectively because of improper installation, even the most sophisticated transceiver will be rendered useless. There are various types of SSB antennas. The most commonly used are a long wire and a whip. Whatever antenna is to be used, the antenna coupler can tune a long wire or whip whose total length is 6 to 15 meters. - Page 15 Typical antenna installations Long wire antenna Whip antenna Ship station Power boats On ship stations, the long wire antenna is spanned On power boats, selection of a mounting location between supporting structures. The length of the for a whip antenna is much easier, since there is horizontal wire should be between 6 and 15 no mast or deck fixture to worry about.

3. WIRING OF OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT 3.1 NBDP Terminal DP-6 The NBDP Terminal connects to the REMOTE connector on the FS-1503. It has a remote control function which automatically sets class of emission and frequency data at the FS-1503. Remarks on connection Connect the NBDP Terminal to the FS-1503 with a 13-pair twisted cable. - Page 19 3.3 Remote Station RB-500 Connect to the REMOTE connector on the FS-1503. If more than two RB-500s or DSC, NBDP are to be installed, connect them via the Distributor DB-500. Necessary parts Requires REMOTE-B Kit (current loop) for connection of a single remote station or REMOTE- A Kit when the DB-500 is connected.

Page 21: Bk (Break-In) Connection
3.6 BK (Break-in) Connection BK (Break-in) connection is necessary when the FS-1503 is installed together with an HF receiver or transceiver. The BK circuit functions to mute the receiver when it and the FS-1503 are operated together. With no BK connection, the receiver may generate unwanted noise or its front end may be damaged by strong signals when the radio is transmitted. -

4. INSTALLATION CHECK 4.1 lnstallation Checks After completing the installation, check the FS-1503 and all equipment connected to it for proper connection and operation. Visual checks Before turning on the radiotelephone, visually check it as follows: Antenna 1) Are fixing bolts, wire clips, shackles securely tightened? 2) Are the antenna and/or coaxial lead-in waterproofed? 3) Is the antenna wire securely connected to the coupler? 4) Make sure no mechanical stress is applied to the antenna at the connection with the coupler. -
