USE OF SPLITTER AND COMBINER
The SL30 is the smallest, most advanced NAV/Comm unit on the market. Its size dictates
room for only one Comm antenna input and one NAV antenna input. It incorporates an
internal diplexor circuit. This means that the input VHF signal must not strip the glideslope
(330 MHz) signal from the NAV (108 MHz) signal. Do not install an external diplexor.
Dual Antennas
If separate VOR and glideslope antennas are used on the aircraft, a splitter/combiner must be
used.
