Prior to insertion of connector into rear of unit, check polarizing key position between
contacts 8 and 9. Refer to

Extraction of Contact from Molex Connector

2.3.4.D.1 Slip the flat narrow blade of a Molex HT-1884 contact ejector tool, P/N 047-
05099-0001, under the contact on the mating side of the connector. By turn-
ing the connector upside down one can see the blade slide into the stop.
2.3.4.D.2 When the ejector is slid into place, the retaining tab of the contact is raised,
allowing the contact to be removed by pulling moderately on the lead.
2.3.4.D.3 Neither the contact or position is damaged by removing a contact; however,
the contact should be visually checked before reinstalling to be certain that re-
taining tab "A" extends as shown in
2.3.4.E.

POST INSTALLATION CHECKS

An operational performance flight test is recommended after the installation is com-
pleted to insure satisfactory performance of the equipment in its normal environment.
Check all aircraft control movements to be sure no electrical cables interfere with their
operation. To check the communications transceiver, maintain an appropriate altitude
and contact a ground station facility at a range of at least 50 nautical miles. Then con-
tact a ground station close in. Pull the volume control out to defeat the automatic
squelch feature and listen for any unusual electrical noise which would reduce the
comm receiver sensitivity by increasing the squelch threshold. If possible, verify the
communications capability on both the high and low end of the VHF comm band.
