Antennas
CB Antenna
Since the maximum allowable power output of
the transmitter is limited by the FCC, the antenna
is critical in affecting transmission distance. Only
a properly matched antenna system will allow
maximum power output. Cobra loaded type
antenna models are highly recommended for
most installations. Consult your Cobra dealer for
further details, or call 773.889.3087 and speak to
a Cobra representative.
Marine Installation
The transceiver will not operate at maximum effi-
ciency in a boat without a ground plate, (unless it
has a steel hull). Before attempting installation ,
consult your dealer for information regarding an
adequate grounding system and prevention of
electrolysis between fittings in the hull and water.
CB Antenna
Note
For optimum performance in
passenger cars the ideal anten-
na location is on the center of
the roof. Second choice is on the
center of the trunk.
Note
Because many newer trucks
feature fiberglass door skins,the
outside mirror must be ground-
ed to the chassis..
Note
3-way Combination Antennas
are also available which allow
operation of all three bands
(AM-FM & CB), using a single
antenna.However, this type of
antenna usually results in less
than normal transmit and
receive range when compared
to a standard-type “Single
Band” CB antenna. Call 773-
889-3087 for further informa-
tion.
