2.2.2.1 Transceiver
For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided
that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section,
and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location
recommended by Motorola is in the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount
the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation (
Section
2.2.1 on page 2-5). See Figure 2-8 for a remote W4, W5, W7, and W9 installation, and Figure 2-10
for a remote W3 installation.
2.2.2.2 Control Head and Remote Mount Cabling
For radios equipped with optional remote mount control heads, see
Figure 2-8. For radios equipped
with remote handheld control heads, see Figure 2-10. Choose a mounting location for the radio,
considering accessibility, and control and antenna cable lengths.
