Safety instructions

Always observe VDE safety regulations!

Use only fuses that have the same cutout characteristics.

Observe the following upper limits when supplying signals:

• HF input: max. 120 dBìV (60dBmV)

•Do not apply a DC voltage >22 V to the HF socket

•Do not apply a low-frequency AC voltage to the HF socket The receiver is also live when disconnected.

Use only the power supply unit supplied to power the MSK 24.

A voltage of between 10 V and 20 V is available at the RF input socket depending on the programming. The source can supply up to 500 mA.
