Plan location of transceiver and microphone bracket before starting the installation.
The transceiver is held in the universal mounting bracket by two thumbscrews which allow for adjustment.
Plug power cable into back of unit marked 'Power'. Be sure to observe polarity markings.
Mount the microphone bracket on either side of the unit (driver's left) using two screws supplied.
The antenna is critical in affecting transmission distance. Only a properly matched antenna system will allow maximum power output.
The transceiver will not operate at maximum efficiency in a boat without a ground plate, unless it has a steel hull.
Make sure the power cord, antenna and microphone are connected to their proper connectors before starting.
Select one of forty channels and adjust volume. The selected channel is indicated by the LED readout.
SWR calibration is done to properly adjust the length of the antenna and to monitor the quality of the coaxial cable.
Switch to 9 (Emergency) or 19 (Information) for instant access to these channels.
Swings proportionately to strength of incoming signal when receiving.
SoundTracker™ gives you clearer, cleaner reception to improve CB communications while on the air.
Push and release the ST button. Red LED is illuminated when SoundTracker™ is turned on.
The RF noise blanker is very effective in reducing repetitive noises such as ignition interference.
This switch is used to shape the Audio Response to the operators preference.
The RF Gain is used to optimize reception in strong or weak signal areas.
The Dimmer controls the brightness of the front panel, signal strength meter and channel display.
Squelch is the 'control gate' for incoming signals.
Be sure the antenna is properly connected to the radio before transmitting.
This controls the microphone sensitivity (outgoing audio level).
This meter swings proportionately to the RF output (outgoing signal) while transmitting.
The external speaker jack is used for remote receiver monitoring.
Activity on the CB channel will be heard through the PA speaker. Adjust Volume Control.
To operate from home or office, you will need a 13.8 volt DC Power Pack and a base station antenna.
Use an optional cigarette lighter adapter and magnetic mount antenna for temporary mobile use.
Conversations cannot last more than 5 minutes with another station; a one minute break is required.
Be sure antenna is properly connected for emergencies. Provide CLIP data.
