An HF base station is the fixed hub of a radio network. From the desk console, an operator calls vehicles, manpack teams and other base stations, records their reports and passes on instructions. Selective calling with 4-digit or 6-digit addresses lets the operator ring one station without disturbing the rest, and emergency calls from the field are received at the base.
Site the base antenna as high and clear as practical, and fit the lightning arrestor in the coaxial cable run with a proper earth connection to protect the radio room from surges picked up outdoors. The kit's own PSU powers the radio at the desk, so confirm your local mains supply when ordering. Because the radio is data ready, a data modem can be added when the network needs to send data.
