8.1 LOCATION

The radio can be mounted at any angle. Choose a mounting location that:
• is far enough from any compass to avoid any deviation in compass read-
ing due to the speaker magnet
• allows connection to a power source and an antenna
• It is recommended not to mount the antenna closer than three feet from
the Phantom PS1000.
Note: To insure the radio does not affect the compass or radios performance is
not affected by the antenna location, temporarily connect the radio in the de-
sired location and:
a. Examine the compass to see if the radio causes any deviation
b.Connect the antenna and key the radio. Check to ensure the radio is
operating correctly by requesting a radio check.
