DESKTOP/OVERHEAD MOUNTING THE RADIO

The supplied universal mounting bracket allows desktop or overhead nounting.

Use a 13/64” (5.2-mm) bit to drill the holes to a surface which is more 0.4 inch

(10 mm) thick and can support more than 3.3 lbs (1.5 kg) and secure the

bracket with the supplied screws, spring washers, flat washers, and nuts.

FLUSH MOUNTING THE RADIO

The optional MMB-84 Flush-Mount Bracket allows flush mounting the radio to

your vessel.

1. To assist in flush mounting, a template has been included. Use this tem-

plate to assess the mounting location.

2. Use the template to mark the location where the rectangular hole is to be

cut. Confirm the space behind the dash or panel is deep enough to accom-

modate the transceiver (at least 6.7 inches or 17 cm deep).

There should be at least 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) between the transceiver’s heatsink

and any wiring, cables or structures.

3. Cut out the rectangular hole and insert the transceiver.

4. Fasten the brackets to the sides of the transceiver with the lock washer nut

combination; so that the mounting screw base faces the mounting surface.

5. Turn the adjusting screw to adjust the tension so that the transceiver is

tight against the mounting surface.

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 INTRODUCTION

The STANDARD HORIZON GX2000/2100 is a VHF/FM Marine Transceiver

designed for use in the frequency range of 156.025 to 163.275 MHz. The

GX2000/2100 can be operated from 11 to 16 VDC and has a switchable RF

output power of 1 watt or 25 watts.

The GX2100 is equipped with the AIS (Automatic Identification System) re-

ceiver and its display program which enables to identify and avoid other large

vessels nearby your vessel. The GX2100 is equipped with the display pro-

gram of the AIS too. Threrfore, the GX2000 also enables to identify and avoid

other large vessels nearby your vessel, if the AIS receiver (not supply) is

commected.

The GX2000/GX2100 is capable of DSC (Digital Selective Calling) Class D

operation and an Enhanced second station RAM+ mic (CMP30 remote-con-

trol speaker/microphone with display) or VH-310 Handset. Class D operation

allows continuous receiving of Digital Selective Calling functions on channel

70 even if the radio is receiving a call.

The GX2000/GX2100 operates on all currently-allocated marine channels

which are switchable for use with USA, International, or Canadian regulations.

It has an emergency channel 16 which can be immediately selected from any

channel by pressing the red [16/9]key. NOAA Weather channels can also be

accessed immediately by Press and holding the [CLR(WX)] key with channel

selection.

Other features of the GX2000/GX2100 include: 30W PA/Fog, multi-station

intercom, scanning, priority scanning, submersible speaker mic, high and low

voltage warning, and GPS repeatability.

4 SAFETY / WARNING INFORMATION

This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only where

the radio operator must have the knowledge to control the exposure condi-

tions of its passengers and bystanders by maintaining the minimum separa-

tion distance of 0.89 m (2.92 feet). Failure to observe these restrictions will

result in exceeding the FCC RF exposure limits.

Antenna Installation:

The antenna must be located at least 0.89 m (2.92 feet) away from passen-

gers in order to comply with the FCC RF exposure requirements.

Lithium Battery Included:

This radio contains a Lithium Battery. At the end of radio’s useful life, under

various state and lows, it may be illegal to dispose of Lithium Battery into the

municipal waste stream. Check with your local solid waste officials for details

in your area for recycling options or proper disposal.

5 FCC RADIO LICENSE INFORMATION

Standard Horizon radios comply with the Federal Communication Commis-

sion (FCC) requirements that regulate the Maritime Radio Service.

5.1 STATION LICENSE

An FCC ship station license is no longer required for any vessel traveling in

U.S. waters (except Hawaii) which is under 20 meters in length. However, any

vessel required to carry a marine radio on an international voyage, carrying a

HF single side band radiotelephone or marine satellite terminal is required to

have a ship station license. FCC license forms, including applications for ship

(605) and land station licenses can be downloaded via the Internet at http://

www.fcc.gov/Forms/Form605/605.html. To obtain a form from the FCC, call

(888) 225-5322.

5.2 RADIO CALL SIGN

Currently the FCC does not require recreational boaters to have a Ship Radio

Station License. The USCG recommends the boats registration number and

the state to be used.

5.3 CANADIAN SHIP STATION LICENSING

You may need a license when traveling in Canada. If you do need a license

contact their nearest field office or regional office or write:

6 FCC NOTICE

NOTICE

Unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment may void com-

pliance with FCC Rules. Any change or modification must be approved

in writing by STANDARD HORIZON.

NOTICE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for

a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These

limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful

interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses

and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in

accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to ra-

dio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference

will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be de-

termined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to

try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

- Connect the equpmet into an outlet on a circuit different from that to

which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

7 GETTING STARTED

7.1 ABOUT VHF RADIO

The radio frequencies used in the VHF marine band lie between 156 and 158

MHz with some shore stations available between 161 and 163 MHz. The ma-

rine VHF band provides communications over distances that are essentially

“line of sight” (VHF signals do not travel well through objects such as buildings,

hills or trees). Actual transmission range depends much more on antenna type,

gain and height than on the power output of the transmitter. On a fixed mount

25W radio transmission expected distances can be greater than 15 miles, for

a portable 5W radio transmission the expected distance can be greater than 5

miles in “line of sight”.

7.2 SELECTING AN ANTENNA

Marine antennas are made to radiate signals equally in all horizontal direc-

tions, but not straight up. The objective of a marine antenna is to enhance the

signal toward the horizon. The degree to which this is accomplished is called

the antenna’s gain. It is measured in decibels (dB) and is one of the major

factors in choosing an antenna. In terms of effective radiated power (ERP),

antennas are rated on the basis of how much gain they have over a theoretical

antenna with zero gain. A 3 foot, 3dB gain antenna represents twice as much

gain over the imaginary antenna.

Typically a 3 foot 3dB gain stainless steel whip is used on a sailboat mast. The

longer 8 foot 6dB fiberglass whip is primarily used on power boats that require

the additional gain.
