Improper performance

can also occur if the antenna is mounted

too

close to

metal

objects

such as

tuna towers.

Again,

a location that

places

the

Loran

assembly

in the clear is

preferable

to one that is

high

and obstructed.

You must

purchase

an

eight

foot

stainless steel or

fiberglass whip

antenna. The threads are

standard 3/8"-24 for the

whip.

A ratchet

mount base is most

commonly

used to mount the Loran to the boat.

The base

mounting

threads are

conventional 1"-14 machine thread

(NOT pipe thread).

This

allows the use of standard antenna

mounting

hardware.

Tighten

all hardware

securely.

The

cable

supplied

with the ELC-1

is

thirty

feet

long.

Do not cut the

cable

if

it's too

long. Instead,

coil and store it out of

the

way.

An

extension cable is available if the cable is too short. Ask

your

dealer

or call

your

local

service center or the

Eagle Factory

Customer

Service

department

for more information.

The ELC-1 can be attached to a swivel

bracket

or

hollow extension

mast,

if desired.

INITIALIZATION

The Loran must be

initialized or "told where it is" the

very

first time it's

used. Once it finds

your present

position,

the UltraNav stores it each

time

power

is turned off. If

you

don't travel over

approximately

one

hundred miles from the

last time

you

turned the loran off

1

you

shouldn't have to

repeat

this

step.

When the UltraNav is turned on for

the

very

first

time,

and

you press

the

LORAN

key,

the screen shown at

right appears.

To initialize the

loran

using

the GRI

search, press

the

key

adjacent

to the "SELECT GRI"

label.

If

you

know

your present position,

and

you

want the loran

to choose

the

GRI,

press

the

key adjacent

to

the "ENTER INITIAL POSITION"

label.

—

Now

enter the

waypoint

location.

Re-

member to add a zero to the

longi-

tude if it's less than 100

degrees.

The screen shown below

appears

after the last

longitude

number is

entered.

This

menu

gives you

three choices.

You can save the

waypoint

under the

next available

number,

using

the

"SAVE AS #" label at the

tcreen. The VIEW/SAVE menu

stores the

to the

waypoint

and not save it

by pressing

the

key adjacent

to the "GO
