DC INPUT CABLE
Connects the radio to a DC power supply capable of delivering 12V DC.
EXTERNAL SPEAKER CONNECTION CABLE
Connects the GX1100S to an external speaker.
GPS RECEIVER CONNECTION CABLE
Connects the GX1100S to a GPS receiver.
GND TERMINAL
Connects the GX1100S to a good ground, for safety and optimum perfor-
mance.
Normally, the GND connection to the heat sink is not needed. However,
when the DC power cable connection to the radio has a long run, the trans-
mitter may become unstable and the receiving audio may be noisy. In such
a case, connect a large diameter, short cable between this terminal on the
heat sink and battery ground.
