[C320-list] VHF Remote/RAM Mic

[Ray Durand]

I installed mine on the helm pod.  There's a perfect spot on the upper, port 
side of the instrument housing.  I had some tutoring from Jeff Hare who had 
already done it on his boat before I did.  At the time, the manufacturer 
recommended not cutting the microphone cable, so you have to make room for 
the connector in the channel.  You have to pull all of the existing wires 
from below, run the RAM Mic cable from above, then pull the wires back up 
and reconnect.  All of the wires are color coded and have terminals.  It may 
sound complicated, but it was relatively easy.  I used a wood drill bit on 
my hand drill to cut out the mounting hole - it cut very easily.  Having the 
microphone on the helm is very convenient.
