Kenwood TM-D710A dual band radio

Larsen 2/70 antenna with NMO base

NMO base with RG58U coax Coax is routed from the middle of the roof where I punched a hole to the rear of the car and down the left side c pillar under the trim panels and pops out from under the driver's side rear seat panel.

History

2015-Sep-19 Installed 2015-Sep-xx Installed base and mic in Yaris, no longer bounces along on the floor behind seats.

2012-Nov-11 Terminated coax with crimp on PL-259 connector from Fry's

Transceiver goes behind driver seat.

Microphone rests on the console. I need to figure out where to put the hanger for it.

Routed a 10g pair of wires from the battery through a rubber plug on the firewall near the main ECU. Wire goes through console under carpet and pops out under where the rear driver side seat would be (if it was not removed and stored away in the garage)

There are fuses on each wire power and ground at the battery. The wires terminate in an Anderson Powerpole 45A connector.

For now I left the stock AGC fuseholder on the radio end. I did this to avoid warranty return issues. (They could claim for example there was no fuse when there really would be 3.) Might remove the Kenwood connector and put in a new automotive style fuse eventually.
