1 Ham Radio Safety In & Out Of The Shack

2 Areas of Discussion Electrical Safety AC Power Grounding Antenna Safety Mobile Installations

3 Electrical Safety AC Safety Grounding Most ham stations DO NOT require new wiring and can operate safely when powered from your home s ac wiring. You just have to follow some simple guidelines: Use three-wire power cords that connect the chassis of your equipment to the ac safety ground. Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) circuit breakers. Use a circuit tester to verify proper wiring

4 Electrical Safety AC Safety Grounding NEVER replace a fuse or circuit breaker with one of a larger size. Don t overload single outlets. If new wiring is required, hire an electrician do it or at least inspect your work. Be sure to follow the Hot-Black (occasionally Red), Neutral-White, Ground-Green (or bare wire) wiring standard

5 Electrical Safety Lightning Lightning strikes amateur towers and antennas NO MORE frequently than tall trees or other structures. However, common sense must prevail and there are some things you should do regardless of where you live. Ground all towers, masts and antenna mounts Ground at the base or if roof-mounted, use a large diameter wire to a ground rod. Ground connections should be as short as possible and avoid sharp bends.

6 Electrical Safety Lightning When lightning is anticipated, disconnect all cables outside the house. Unplug equipment power cords inside the house. Operating during a thunderstorm is never a good idea. A nearby strike can create a voltage surge of thousands of volts in a power line or phone line.

14 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! Before you start installing a tower or an antenna on your property, check with your home owner s association and also check any local zoning codes to ensure that it s OK. If your tower exceeds 200 feet or you re near an airport you ll need to check with the FCC and the FAA. Place all antennas and feed lines clear of power lines including the service drop to your home. Ensure you have at least 10 feet of clearance beyond your mast or tower height from the nearest power line.

15 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! Never attach an antenna or guy wire to a utility pole since a mechanical failure could result in contact with high-voltage wires. Follow your local electrical code when grounding antennas and support systems. Towers should be grounded with separate 8-foot long ground rods for each tower leg, bonded to the tower and to each other.

16 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! Most antennas work better when installed as high as is practical and that usually means installing a tower or some sort. When working on a tower or as part of the ground crew, safety is absolutely critical. Each member of the crew should wear hard hats, goggles or safety goggles, and heavy gloves. Use sun screen lotion

17 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! If you re the climber use an approved climbing harness DO NOT use a lineman s belt and work boots to protect the arches of your feet. Inspect all tower guying and support hardware. Repair or tighten before you climb. Crank-up towers must be fully nested in the retracted position and blocked. Never climb a crank-up tower supported only by its support cable.

18 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! Double-check all climbing harnesses and lanyards. Make sure all clips and carabiners work smoothly and do not stick in the open or closed position. Make sure all ropes and load-bearing hardware are in good condition and properly rated for the load. Use a gin pole (a temporary mast that is attached to the tower) to hoist stuff (e.g., tools, parts, tower sections, antenna, etc.) up the tower.

19 Antenna Safety ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER S DIRECTIONS! Double-check the latest weather reports. Visit the bathroom before you climb the tower. Your ground crew will thank you. Avoid climbing alone whenever possible because it s never safe. Make sure all power to the tower is turned off. Stay clear of the base of the tower unless you need to be there and never remove your hard hat until the climber is on the ground.

21 Mobile Installations

22 Mobile Installations MAIN CONSIDERATIONS EASY TO REACH CONTROLS HEAT DISSIPATION FOR RADIO CONTROL UNIT OUT OF DIRECT SUN EXTERNAL SPEAKER Highly recommended Place it where you can see it

23 Mobile Installations Power Power should be taken directly from the vehicle s battery. Both positive and negative leads should be fused at the battery. If there is a fault anywhere after the fuse the fuse will do it s job and break the circuit.

24 Mobile Installations

25 Mobile Installations Both leads should be fused at the battery to prevent fire.

26 Mobile Installations Power Drawing power directly from the battery helps eliminate noise. All leads should be 10 ga. or larger stranded wire and be kept as short as necessary. Protect wires with rubber grommets where they pass through the firewall or any metal.

27 Mobile Installations Mounting The Radio The radio should be mounted in such a way that it does not interfere with the driver s ability to safely operate the vehicle. Period.

28 Mobile Installations Mounting The Radio A lot of the mobile HF radios today offer a detachable remote control head that allows to face of the radio to be mounted in a safe and convenient location while the main unit is mounted out of the way under a seat or in a trunk.

29 Mobile Installations YAESU FT-857 control head mounted on gooseneck and radio mounted under passenger seat. A neat and secure installation.

30 Use extreme caution to avoid airbag deployment zones!!

31 Remember This is our hobby. We should never put our lives or the lives of someone else in danger!
