Note: The radio antenna is to be mounted from other antennas and interference
sources as much as possible. CB antennas must be mounted usually in or on metal
surfaces. A suciently large metal surface is essential for the function of the anten-
na. For installation on a berglass cabs or plastic wind deectors, special ground
less antennas (eg GL 27) can be used.

1. Introduction
The LT-198 can be operated as a mobile station in a car or with a suitable DC power
supply as a base station. This device complies with the latest European CB stan-
dards. Due to its selectable CB standards it can be used throughout Europe. Please
select only a CB standard that is allowed in the country of use.
Features:
• Multi-standard device
•
Up/ASQ/Down keys on the microphone
• Channel Scan
• LCD display, S-Meter
• ASQ Automatic squelch, adjustable
• RF Gain
• Socket for external loudspeaker
2. Installation
Select the mounting location so that road safety is not aected by the device, or ad-
ditional risk of injury in an accident arises. Check that the display can be seen, and
the controls can easily accessed.

Power Supply
Fuse
A fuse in the power cable protects against damage caused by technical defects or
incorrect polarity. If this fuse is blown, rst eliminate the error and then replace the
blown fuse with a similar spare fuse (5 AF). If the fuse burns several times, please
send the radio to our service.
Car Operation
The red wire of the power cable must be connected to the positive terminal (+12 V),
the black wire to the negative terminal. If possible the radio should be connected di-
rectly to the vehicle battery, because this is the point with the least interference from
the car’s electrical system. The device can also be connected behind the ignition
switch. All settings of the LT-198 are stored in a nonvolatile memory.
Operation with AC Adapter
Operate your radio only at a stabilized radio power supply, which is capable to pro-
vide at least 2A at 12 -13.8V DC. Unregulated power supplies or battery chargers are
unsuitable and can cause damage. Connect the red lead to the positive (+) terminal
of the power supply, the black wire to the negative (-) terminal of the power supply.
D
Antenna Connection
Connect the CB antenna to the ANT socket on the back of your LT-198. The antenna
must be tuned to the CB radio band. For this use a SWR meter. For a good radio
range, the SWR should not exceed a value of 2. A high SWR also points to defects
in antenna, cable, or a short circuit in the antenna line. Never transmit without con-
nected antenna!
