Connecting the VHF 200 Series Radio to a Hailer Horn (Optional) The radio can be connected to a hailer horn that will allow using the microphone or the GHS 10 handset to make announcements through your public address system. To mount the hailer horn, refer to the installation instructions that came with the device. Mount the hailer horn at least 10 ft. (3 m) away from the microphone and facing away from the microphone to avoid feedback. To connect the VHF 200 series radio to a hailer horn: 1. Attach the included 23 in. (600 mm) hailer cable to the cable on the rear panel of the radio by connecting the red RCA plug into the red jack. 2. Connect the white wire on the other end of the hailer cable to the positive (+) connection on the hailer. 3. Connect the black wire to the negative (-) connection on the hailer. CAUTION: Cover the connections with a waterproof, adhesive tape, such as rubber vulcanizing tape, to prevent water from seeping into the radio. Refer to the VHF 100/200 Series Owner's Manual to operate the hailer. VHF 100/200 Series Radio Installation Instructions
