Antenna Requirements and Attachment
Do not transmit when anyone is within the MPE radius of the antenna unless that person or persons are shielded from the antenna by a grounded metallic barrier. This is especially important on vessels with antennas mounted as described in B where no one may be within 9 ft (2,8 m) horizontally from the base of the antenna during transmissions.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ABOVE LIMITS MAY EXPOSE THOSE WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS TO RF ENERGY ABSORPTION IN EXCESS OF THE FCC MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE. IT IS THE RADIO OPERATOR’S RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THAT MPE LIMITS ARE HEEDED AND THAT NO ONE IS WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS DURING TRANSMISSIONS.
Antenna Lead Attachment
Coaxial Cable Socket | Once the antenna is installed, the Coaxial Cable Lead can |
| |
| be attached to the coaxial cable socket at the back of the |
| transceiver. |
NOTICE
Attempting to transmit without an antenna attached will damage your CobraMarine VHF radio.

External Devices and Connections
•
Your CobraMarine VHF radio is set up to connect auxiliary devices for navigation, convenience and added versatility. As is the case with the antenna, choosing these devices is best done with the advice and guidance of a knowledgeable dealer.
Standard connectors are provided on the front and back of the transceiver.
NMEA Communication Cable
Your CobraMarine Radio is set up with an NMEA communication port that allows the radio to communicate with other electronic equipment such as a GPS Chartplotter, Depth Sounder, Auto Pilot, DSC VHF Radio, Radar and Personal Computer with the ability to display information. This capability allows for the operator to do Position Polling and Position Requests directly from the radio. The NMEA input and output leads are directed through the NMEA communication port.
NMEA Cable
External Speaker (Not Included)
An External Speaker can provide greater volume to hear messages than the speaker in the transceiver.
To Install an External Speaker:
1.Connect the speaker positive (+) wire to the orange wire coming out of the standard speaker/PA wire harness.
2.Connect the speaker negative
