Wiring the AN150 antenna

Supplied with the antenna is a 50-foot length of RG-59 coaxial cable for

use with either the GPS-only AN150 antenna or the GPS/DGPS AN205-P

antenna.

The GPS-only antenna must be used with a minimum of 20

feet of cable and a maximum of 100 feet. Coil up any unused

length; do not cut it to less than 20 feet!

Mounting the AN150 antenna

Tools needed:

•

flat-bladed screwdriver

•

knife blade

•

One TNC connector is pre-attached to the antenna end of the RG-59

coaxial cable. To connect it to the antenna:

1. Remove the antenna base by loosening the four captive screws in the

base.

2. Screw the base onto the top of the antenna mount (standard 1"- 14

marine thread).

3. Feed the open end of the supplied coax cable down through the

antenna base and through the hollow core of the antenna mount.
