WSJV6AVIATION VHF AM TRANSCEIVER

MGL Avionics VHF Airband Transceiver Model V6 User & Installation Manual PRELIMINARY - 9/2011 General Please read this manual before operating the V6 Transceiver Please include this manual if ownership of the V6 Transceiver changes Operational limitations, conditions and restrictions Do not operate this unit outside of its specified temperature range – this may result in malfunction or damage to the unit. Observe the installation wiring diagrams. Incorrect wiring may damage this unit. Never operate this unit outside of its specified voltage range. Doing so may cause serious damage to this unit. At all times ensure that no reverse polarity power is applied to this unit. Reverse polarity will destroy this unit . This Transceiver is designed to withstand the possible power surges that may occur in a correctly wired power supply system of a typical aircraft. For this reason the Transceiver may be left switched on when engines are started. Please note that the supply voltage may drop below minimum operating voltage during engine cranking. During this time operation of the radio will not be possible. Do not operate the transmitter of this unit without connecting a correctly adjusted antenna. Doing so may result in damage to the unit. The V6 Transceiver is not FAA type certified. This unit may only be used in aircraft where such a unit is permitted under local rules. Typically these rules permit operation in non-type certified aircraft such as home built and experimental or sport category aircraft. Limitations may exist on maximum altitudes above which a non-certified airband Transceiver may not be operated. Please check local rules with the relevant authorities. Use of this radio may be subject to a radio station license. Please contact the local radio frequency spectrum governing body (such as the FCC) to inquire as to the procedures required to obtain a radio station license. Operation of this Transceiver may only be allowed by persons holding a valid radio license (restricted or full). Please do not operate this Transceiver illegally. Please do not operate this Transceiver in an environment or in conditions where its transmissions may cause interference to other electronic equipment or systems. Never operate an airband radio without the required qualifications to do so. Never cause a nuisance to aircraft on the ground or in the air by misuse of this Transceiver in any way. Never compromise the safety of other aircraft with lengthy transmissions. Keep transmissions short and to the point following established air to air and air to ground rules and procedures. 2 Table of Contents General.................................................................................................................2 Operational limitations, conditions and restrictions...........................................2 The V6 Panel........................................................................................................4 The V6 controls.....................................................................................................5 The “VOL/SQ” control.......................................................................................5 The “ACTIVE” button........................................................................................6 The “FREQUENCY” control..............................................................................6 Setting frequencies.......................................................................................7 Changing channels.......................................................................................7 RX/TX bargraph...........................................................................................8 The 'MENU” button...........................................................................................9 Menu structure.............................................................................................9 First level menu...............................................................................................11 Ambient noise suppression.........................................................................11 Program channels......................................................................................12 Contrast......................................................................................................12 Microphone level........................................................................................13 Microphone bandpass filter........................................................................13 PTT Mode...................................................................................................14 Auxiliary input level.....................................................................................14 Scanning state at power up........................................................................14 Setup .........................................................................................................14 Second level menu.........................................................................................15 TX MIC VOX / TX MIC HOT.......................................................................15 TX LOCK ON / TX LOCK OFF...................................................................15 P-scan ON / P-scan OFF............................................................................15 Direct FS / Flip-Flop FS..............................................................................16 1 MIC Level / 4 MIC Level..........................................................................16 CHANNEL spacing.....................................................................................16 Default........................................................................................................16 Installation...........................................................................................................17 General installation notes .............…

Radio Frequency Hazard Information As per Section 1.1310 mobile transmitters are required to be operated in a manner that ensures that the public is not exposed to RF energy levels in accordance with OST/OET Bulletin Number 65. A minimum safe distance between the user / general public and the device has been calculated below. In accordance with Section 1.1310 the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) power density limit for the General Population / Uncontrolled Exposure of 0.2 mW/m2 or 27.5 V/m has been applied. The minimum distance from the antenna at which the MPE is met is calculated from the equation relating field strength in V/m, transmit power in watts, transmit antenna gain and separation distance in metres: The rated power of this transmitter is 6.5 watts which has been measured to be 5.9 watts when powered at 13.8 Vdc. In a typically mobile installation this transceiver would be used with a whip ¼ wave dipole type of antenna with a gain of 1.64. d =  (30 * P * G) / E =  (30 * 6.5 * 1.64 ) / 27.5 = 0.65 metres or 65 cm The above calculations show that this device will meet the MPE requirement for mobile devices providing a safe distance of at least 65 cm is provided. A warning to this affect will need to be inserted in the equipment manual. Result: Complies
