You should unscrew the fibreglass or stainlesssteel whip from
the antennabasewhen the antennais not in use.
When travelling in scrub or undergrowth, avoid overhanging

branches.Codan recommendsthat you carry the emergency

Installingthe antenna
Disclaimer
The antennashould be installed by a suitably-
WARI'JING qualified technician, to the relevant standards
and approvals.
While the following instructions are intended to
assistwith installation, it is the purchaser's
responsibility to ensurethat the antennais
installed with due regard to pedestrianand
r^,Ànu,!r,^ vehicle-occupantsafety,particularlyin the
vv'n'.r\rr\15
event of a vehicle accident.Codanacceptsno
responsibility or liability in the event of injury
to pedestriansor vehicle occupantsor any other
damagedue to insecure or otherwise unsafe or
inappropriate installation of the antenna.
What you needto consider

The antennais a critical element in an HF communications
system. Correct installation of the antennaprovides effrcient
operation over the frequency range ofthe transceiver' A good
installation ensuresthe antennaprovides optimum output
power during transmission and clear reception of weak
signals.
When installing the antennayou must consider:

. the location and mounting of the antenna
. how to provide a good earth plane for the antenna
. the routing ofthe coaxial and control cable

lnstallinothe antenna
Location
To obtain optimal radiation efficiency from your antenna,and

optimal reception at your antenna,it must be mounted in a
location that:
. is clear of surrounding body work
. supports a good earth plane
. supportsthe RF earthing required for correct tuning and
loading
. does not obscurethe driver's vision
. does not obscurenumber plates or vehicle lights
. does not interfere with engine or car openings
. allows for best radiation (open and clear of all metal
obstructions)
. clears electric power lines, overhanging trees,bridges etc
. does not breach vehicle-licensing regulations
A mounted antennamust have:

. a strong anchoragefor the base ofthe antenna
. a sound electrical connection to the vehicle chassis

Possiblemounting locations that provide good electrical

performanceof the 9350 Automatic Tuning Whip Antenna are
shown in the following photographs'

lnstallingthe antenna
Figure6: Front-mountlocationon off-roadvehicle
left-handdrive
position
If the antennais front-mounted, it should be

C,eUTl*N mounted on the side opposite to the driving
position.
Mounting bracket
The antennamust be mounted on a sturdy metal plate (10 mm

(% in) thick), strengthenedby a support bracket on at least one
side. The mounting bracket and fixing should be able to
withstand any vibrations induced from the vehicle travelling
over an off-road surface.A strong metal plate that is large
enough to support the antennawill also provide efficient
earthing.The plate must have a 17 mm (0.67 in) hole to accept
the mounting screw.
The mounting bracket should be located such that the top half
ofthe antennatuner shroud, or more, sits above any adjacent
horizontal metal plane on the vehicle (for example, a trunk lid,
hood, or roof).
You should consider any overall height

NOTE
restrictions that arerelevant to vour vehicle.
The bracket should be located so that any flexing ofthe

antennaassemblydoes not damagethe panels of the vehicle.
AutomaticTuningWhip Antenna9350 InstallationHandbook 11

The shroud over the antennatuner can flex up to

NOTE
150 mm (6 in) without damageto the shroud.
The installed antennashould enable easy accessto the

connectors.
Earthing
Most mobile antennasare considerably shorter than a quarter

wavelength at HF, and can exhibit an extremely low radiation
resistance.Consequently,their efiiciency is reducedcompared
with the quarter-waveradiator that they represent.This can be
improved by good installation practices,and most importantly,
by the provision of a low-impedance earth retum for the
antenna.
Due to the relatively poor earth plane surrounding a mobile

HF antenna,best use should be made of what is available. A
reduction in any lossescan increaseantennacurrent and
radiation. This can often be achievedby providing a good
earth connection from the base ofthe antennato nearby
bodywork. An earth strap is provided for this. Cormectionsto
the vehicle chassisare not as effective becausemany 4WD
vehicles have insulating mountings from body to chassis.
A strong metal plate that is large enough to support the

antennawill provide efficient earthing. The plate should be
welded to the chassisor some other part of the vehicle's frame.
The mounting bracket and plate must be free of rust and paint
to allow metal-to-metal contact between the base of the
antennaand the mounting bracket. This electrical bond is the
basis for effective RF earthing. RF currents flow on the
conductor surface,therefore good RF earthing requires
conductorswith large surface areas.
Conductive greaseshould be used on the

NOTE
touching surfacesto help preventcorrosion.

Installing
theantenna
The RF earth differs from the DC earth required by the battery

and the vehicle's electrics. For more information on power
supply factors and earthing the transceiver seethe Reference
Manual provided with the transceiver.
Cabling
The coaxial cable between the antennaand the transceiver

should be installed as far as possible from other vehicle
wiring, especially high-tension ignition wiring or the engine
managementcomputer.
The cabling must be in a position that:

. is away from the driver's feet
. is securedand concealedas much as possible
. ensuresthe control and coaxial cablesare separatedfrom
the DC power cableby at least200 mm (8 in) (except
over short distances,for example, to passthrough the
samehole in a bulkhead)
. is securedbehind protective metalwork (only if the
cablesrun under the vehicle)
Keep cables in the engine compartment away from:
. heat, for example, exhaust,air-conditioning systems,and
water pipes
. oils and corrosive liquids, for example, engine oil,
battery fluid, and brake fluid
Protect all the cables from sharp edgesand mechanical

abrasions.Cables that passthrough body panels or internal
bulkheadsmust be protected by rubber grommets. Holes in the
bulkhead need only be large enough to allow the end ofthe
cable with the smaller connector to pass through. Removing a
connector should be a last resort.

TuningWhip Antenna
An NVIS kit (Codanpart number 15-00323)is availablefor
attaching to a 9350 antenna.For information on installing this
kit with the antennaseethe instructions provided with the kit.
The NVIS kit is designedto improve the performance of short

to medium-range HF communications for the 9350 antennaby
increasing the high-angle radiation characteristics.Typically,
thesecommunicationdistancesare 20-500 km (12-310 mi)'
The operating frequency range when using the NVIS kit is
1.6-12MHz.
The vertical radiation pattem from a short vertical whip

antennais very poor. As such, HF communications over short
distancesmay be diffrcult or non-existent from such an
antenna.The NVIS kit replacesthe whip section of the 9350
antenna.The NVIS whip is longer and positioned horizontally
to improve the vertical radiation effrciency.
