How to improve reception on my Radio Shack TRC-495?
If you're having trouble with reception on your Radio Shack Transceiver, start by adjusting the VOLUME and SQUELCH as needed. Ensure that your CB is switched to an active channel and that the microphone is properly connected. Check the antenna connections to make sure they are secure and adjust the RF GAIN. If Channel 9 is locked, press CH9 again to unlock it.
What to do if my Radio Shack Transceiver does not work?
If your Radio Shack Transceiver isn't working, first ensure that the power is correctly connected to a live source. If it still doesn't work, check the fuse in the DC power lead and replace it with an identical fuse if necessary.
Why is my Radio Shack Transceiver having trouble with transmission?
If you are experiencing trouble with transmission on your Radio Shack Transceiver, make sure the antenna connector is secure and the antenna is fully extended. Clean and tighten any corroded connectors. Ensure you are fully pressing the talk button while speaking and that the microphone connector is firmly pressed into the jack.
