@ FIXED STATION INSTALLATION [general]¢ Power supply A regulated DC power supply (13.8 V DC, 5.5 A or more) is required.It is recommended that the TRIO-KENWOOD PS-430 be used for a power sup-ply.Use of the PS-430 eat PS-430 NOTE:a Preferably, voltage shouldq be adjusted to 13.8 V DC.if= = Current capacity is moreNAN|iill ll°sco) than 5.5 A.| . The regulated supply should(oO) be equipped with a built-inUIil |iL WW IN! protection circuit for bothTM-201A overcurrent and over-voltage.CAUTION\ A battery charging powerFuse supply cannot be used.OA:OOOog @ .@TM.201A >)e Antenna Various types of fixed station antennas are commercially available, select yourdesired antenna according to your installation space and application.Note that the SWR of your antenna should be less than 1.5. A high SWR willcause the TM-201A protective circuit to operate, reducing the transmit outputpower.Yagiantennas(ARRAY)Transceiverperformance dependslargely on the type of antenna used.For fixed station operation there areground plane antennas (omni-directional) and Yagi antennas (uni-directional). The Yagi antenna issuitable for long distance operation(DX) or communication with aspecific party.(having excellent directivity andantenna is generally used for localoperation.)Ground planeantennaRotor Control cable12
