Honeywell KHF 1050 System Installation Manual page 86

For best reliability, the KPA 1052 should be mounted such that it is not
subjected to excessive vibration or heat.
The KPA 1052 can be mounted to either a vertical or horizontal surface, or at
an angle.
5.B.(3) KRX 1053 Receiver/Exciter Mounting Location
Refer to "Figure 2028 - KRX 1053 Receiver/Exciter Outline and Mounting"
mounting dimensions.
Mount the KRX 1053 so that the connection between the KRX 1053 and the
KAC 1052 does not exceed 50 feet. The KRX 1053 is typically mounted
vertically on a horizontal surface.
5.B.(4) CDU Mounting Location
Refer to "Figure 2020 - PS440 Control Display Unit Outline and Mounting" ,
"Figure 2021 - MC-850 Multifunction Control and Display Unit Outline and
Mounting" , "Figure 2021 - MC-850 Multifunction Control and Display Unit
Outline and Mounting" , "Figure 2021 - MC-850 Multifunction Control and
Display Unit Outline and Mounting"

Mounting of the CDU is not critical. Whatever controller is used, it should be
mounted so that physically it is within comfortable reach and sight of the
intended user .
5.B.(5) Antenna Location
To minimize RF exposure of personnel, install the antenna generally away from
areas where people are located. In situations where a person would be directly
exposed to the antenna, such as in a composite aircraft, a minimum separation
of 6.9 feet (2.1 meters) is generally required between any part of the antenna
and any location where a person may be permanently seated in the aircraft. The
necessary separation distance can be reduced to a minimum of 3.3 feet (1
meter) in applications where only SSB voice modulation is utilized, due to the
low duty factor of that mode. Lesser separation is acceptable in an aircraft
where a metal skin shields the occupants from the antenna.
The antenna is a primary factor for maximum performance of the KHF 1050 HF
system. While numerous options are available in the choice of antenna
configurations, some configurations are better suited for a particular installation
than others.
