1.3 LICENCE REQUIREMENTS

The transmitter, as installed in the aircraft, requires an Aircraft Radio Station

Licence. This licence is obtained by filing the FCC Form 404. While awaiting the

receipt of the station licence, a copy of FCC Form 404 is kept in the aircraft.

This equipment has been type accepted by the FCC and entered on the type ac-

cepted equipment list, as GARMIN GNC 300 and must be identified as GARMIN

GNC 300 on your Form 404, Aircraft Radio Station Licence application.

CAUTION

THE VHF TRANSMITTER IN THIS EQUIPMENT IS GUARANTEED TO MEET

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION ACCEPTANCE OVER THE OPER-

ATING TEMPERATURE RANGE. MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED

BY GARMIN COULD VOID THE LICENCES' AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE

EQUIPMENT.

SECTION 2 INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Careful planning and consideration of the suggestions in this section are required to

achieve the desired performance and reliability from the GNC 300.

2.1 ANTENNA CONSIDERATIONS

2.1.1 GPS ANTENNA LOCATION

The GNC 300 GA 56 Antenna must be mounted on top of the aircraft. For best

performance select a location with an unobstructed view of the sky above the aircraft

when in level flight. Figure 2-1 illustrates a typical GPS antenna installation.

For rotorcraft, locate the GA 56 antenna:

1) As far from the main rotor hub as possible. This reduces the percentage of time

the blade blocks the antenna.

2) As far below the blade surface as possible if installing the antenna under the blade.

This reduces signal distortion caused by the blades.

Av. Kit Install. Manual

190-00067-02 Rev. J

Page 9

The antenna should be located at least 3 feet from transmitting antennas such as VHF

Comm, HF transmitter, DME, Transponder, and Radar.

2.1.2 COMM ANTENNA LOCATION

The COMM antenna should be well removed from all projections, engines and

propellers. The ground plane surface directly below the antenna should be a flat plane

over as large an area as possible (18 inches square minimum).

The antenna should be mounted a minimum of 6 feet away from any DME antennas,

4 feet from any ADF sense antennas, and a minimum of 3 feet from the GNC 300 and

its GPS antenna.

The GNC 300 COMM antenna connector is specified to have installed GPN 330-00067-

00 (1.57542 GHz notch filter) to minimize interfering harmonics.

2.1.3 ELECTRICAL BONDING

No special precautions need to be taken to provide a bonding path between the GPS

antenna and the aircraft structure.

Follow the manufacturers instructions for the COMM antenna.

2.1.4 ANTENNA LIMITATIONS

GARMIN'S GA 56 Antennas are recommended for installations where the airspeed of

the aircraft will be subsonic.

GARMIN's GA 56, Mod 1 or later, must be used.

See the COMM antenna specification for its limitations.

2.1.5 VHF COMM INTERFERENCE OF GPS

On many panel-mounted aircraft, VHF COMM's can radiate strong harmonics from

the unit and antenna. The GNC 300 COMM section will not interfere with its GPS

section. However, placement of the GNC 300 GPS antenna relative to all COMM's and

COMM antenna, including its own, is critical.

Use the following guidelines, in addition to others in this document, when locating the

GNC 300 and its antennas.

GPS Antenna: Locate as far as possible from all COMM antennas

and all COMMs (including the GNC 300). The GPS

antenna will be much less sensitive to COMM antennas that

use a 1.57542 GHz notch filter.

GNC 300: Locate as far as possible from all COMM antennas.

Av. Kit Install. Manual

190-00067-02 Rev. J

Page 10

If a COMM antenna is found to be the problem, a 1.57542 GHz notch filter (GPN 330-

00067-00) may be installed in the VHF COMM coax, as close to the COMM as possible.

This filter (GPN 330-00067-00) is required for the GNC 300 transmitter).

If a COMM is found to be radiating, the following can be done:

1) Replace or clean VHF COMM rack connector to assure good coax ground.

2) Place a grounding brace between the GNC 300, VHF COMM, and ground.

3) Shield the VHF COMM wiring harness.

2.1.6 COMM ANTENNA INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The COMM antenna should be installed according to the manufacturer's

recommendations.

2.2 RACK CONSIDERATIONS

2.2.1 ACCESSIBILITY

Plan a location which gives the pilot complete and comfortable access to the entire

keypad and which is plainly visible from the pilots perspective. Check that there is

adequate depth for the rack in the instrument panel. A location away from heating

vents or other sources of heat generation is optimal. Figure 2-2 illustrates a typical

aviation rack installation.

2.3 CABLING AND WIRING

The recommended antenna cable type for both antennas is M17/155-0001 (RG-58A/

U) per MIL-C-17. Maximum allowable length for the GPS antenna using this cable

type is 40 feet. Other cable types with 50 ohms nominal impedance and longer lengths

can be used for the GPS antenna, provided the installer insures that the attenuation

does not exceed 10dB at 1.5 GHz for the specific installation. Check that there is

ample space for the cabling and mating connectors. Avoid sharp bends in cabling,

particularly the COMM antenna cable, and routing near aircraft control cables.

Cabling for the GNC 300 should not be routed near components or cabling which are

sources of electrical noise.

Do not route the COMM antenna cable near any ADF antenna cables.

Route the GPS antenna cable as far as possible away from all COMMs and COMM

antenna cable.

2.4 COOLING AIR

Cooling air is not required for the GNC 300 but is highly recommended because, as

with any electronic equipment, reduced operating temperature can contribute to

increased reliability. Additionally, location of the GNC 300 in a stack of other power
