I am about to undertake the installation of an Icom 802 on my Super Maramu. It seems a straightforward installation. I have several questions.
1- The SM comes prewired for an SSB. There are 3 wires behind the removable pannel by the nav station marked BLU 24v. It looks to me as this is a 24v positive, negative and also a ground. The wires are of sufficient gage that they can take the voltage. Is this part of the prewire and is this where the SSB tranmsmitter should be grounded.
2- The antena tuner that is installed in the lazarette. Is there a ground plate installed in the SM. Is there a grounding point in the lazarette or should I run the antena ground back to the same point as the tuner.
3- Is there anything that I should do to help the performance of the SSB.
