15. Permanently connect the cable from the vehicle-mounted antenna to the radio’s antenna cable by mating
the two TNC connectors together. Use two pairs of soft-jaw pliers to gently tighten this connection. Do
not over tighten and do not twist either cable.
16. Make several test calls on the radio system to verify operation of the mobile radio. Before making the
calls, select other talk groups or conventional channels, as required to verify operation.
Improper installation of the RF cables may lead not only to poor radio
performance but also to harmful exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
To prevent RF leakage and ensure peak performance, make sure the RF connectors are
tight, but do not over-tighten so connector damage will not occur.
Testing is complete. The radio is now ready for normal communications.
