INSTALLATION
ATTACHING THE
MICROPHONE HOLDER
You can connect the microphone hold-
er to either side of the transceiver or to
another location in your vehicle.
To attach the holder to either side of
the transceiver, secure the holder to
the side using the supplied screws and
lock washers.
To attach the holder to another loca-
tion in the vehicle, such as the dash-
board, follow these steps.
1. Using the holder as a template,
mark the positions for the mount-
ing screw holes at the desired
location.
2. At each marked position, drill a
hole slightly smaller than the sup-
plied mounting screws.
Caution:
Be careful not to drill
into anything behind the mount-
ing surface.
3. Attach the holder at the mounting
location using the supplied 3 mm
machine screws, spring washers,
plain washers, and nuts.
Note:
If you cannot reach behind
the mounting surface to attach the
nuts on the machine screws, use
the supplied 3 mm plain washers
and self-tapping screws.
MOUNTING THE
TRANSCEIVER
The most common mounting location
for this CB is under a vehicle’s dash-
board. However, if you use the TRC-
498 as a base station, you can place it
on a desk, shelf, or table (see “Using
the Transceiver as a Base Station” on
Page 9).
If you are mounting the CB in a vehi-
cle, choose a location where:
• You can easily reach the CB.
• Wires and cables are clear of the
vehicle’s pedals or other moving
parts.
• The CB is not directly in front of
heating vents.
• All wires and cables can reach
their connection points.
