5.3 COAXIAL CABLE

VHF antennas are connected to the transceiver by means of a coaxial cable, a shielded transmission line. Coaxial cable is specified by it’s diameter and con- struction.

For runs less than 6 m, RG-58/U, about 6 mm in diameter is a good choice. For runs over 6 m but less than 15 m, the larger RG-8X should be used for cable runs over 15 m RG213 should be used. For installation of the connector onto the coaxial cable refer to the figure below.

To get your coax cable through a fitting and into your boat’s interior, you may have to cut off the end plug and reattach it later. You can do this if you follow the directions that are supplied with the connector. Be sure to make good soldered connections.
