Vertex Standard Co., Ltd.
ABOUT VHF RADIO
The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158
MHz with some shore stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The marine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially
“line of sight” (VHF signals do not travel well through objects such as buildings,
hills or trees). Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type,
gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter. On a fixed mount
25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater than 15 miles, for a
portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5
miles in “line of sight”.
SELECTING AN ANTENNA
Marine antennas are made to radiate signals equally in all horizontal directions,
but not straight up. The objective of a marine antenna is to enhance the signal
toward the horizon. The degree to which this is accomplished is called the
antenna’s gain. It is measured in decibels (dB) and is one of the major factors
in choosing an antenna. In terms of effective radiated power (ERP), antennas
are rated on the basis of how much gain they have over a theoretical antenna
with zero gain. A 3 foot, 3dB gain antenna represents twice as much gain over
the imaginary antenna.
Typically a 3 foot 3dB gain stainless steel whip is used on a sailboat mast. The
longer 8 foot 6dB fiberglass whip is primarily used on power boats that require
the additional gain.

COAXIAL CABLE
1/8''
Adapter
FCC ID: K6630043X30 / IC ID: 511B-30043X30
Vertex Standard Co., Ltd.
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
construction.
For runs less than 20 feet, RG-58/U, about 1/4 inch in diameter is a good choice.
For runs over 20 feet but less than 50 feet, the larger RG-8X or RG-213/U
should be used for cable runs over 50 feet RG-8X should be used. For installation of the connector onto the coaxial cable refer to the figure below.
1/16''
3/4''
1 1/8''
3/4''
5/8''3/8''
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 come with the connector. Be sure to make
good soldered connections.

POWER SWITCH/VOLUME CONTROL (VOL/PWR
Turns the transceiver on and off as well as adjusts the audio volume. To
turn the transceiver on press and hold this knob until the LCD turns on. To
turn it off, press and hold this knob until the LCD turns off. When the power
is turned on, the transceiver is set to the last selected channel.
Secondary Use
When the transceiver is turned on while the [SCAN] and [WX] keys are held
down, the internal microprocessor is reset. This clears the memory and all
user-programmed settings, such as scan memory, and priority scan assignments. This condition is known as the default condition, the same as
when shipped from the factory. For a list of these defaults, see the section
6.18 Resetting the Transceiver’s Microprocessor.
NOTE
Resetting the microprocess will not erase the DSC MMSI and the
Individual Directory Call information.
)
SQUELCH CONTROL (SQL
Adjusting this control clockwise, sets the point at which random noise on
the channel does not activate the audio circuits but a received signal does.
This point is called the squelch threshold. Further adjustment of the squelch
control will degrade reception of wanted transmissions.
[
DISTRESS] Key
Used to send a DSC Distress Call. To send the distress call refer to section
7.5.1 (Transmitting A DSC Distress Call).
