Figure 3 Typical installation configuration

In addition to the items provided with your NSPL-400 the following
items will be required for installation:

VHF antenna

Connection to a suitable VHF antenna will be required for the NSPL-
400 to operate. A standard marine band VHF antenna such as that
used with VHF voice radios will be sufficient. Please take note of the
warnings in section 1 regarding the use of antennas.

VHF radio

If you have an existing VHF voice radio connected directly to a VHF
antenna, you can disconnect the VHF radio from the VHF antenna
and connect them both to the relevant connectors on the NSPL-
400.
