USING VEHICLE
BATTERY POWER
Follow these steps to connect the
transceiver to vehicle battery power.
1. Connect the red wire (with the in-
line fuse holder) on the back of
the transceiver to a point in your
vehicle’s fuse block that has
power only when the ignition is in
the ACC (accessory) or ON posi-
tion.
2. Connect the black wire to a metal
part of the vehicle’s frame (chas-
sis ground).
Caution:
Do not connect the
black wire to a non-metallic (plas-
tic) part, or to any part insulated
from the vehicle’s chassis by a
non-metallic part.
USING THE
TRANSCEIVER AS A
BASE STATION
Although this transceiver is designed
mainly for mobile use, you can also
use it as a base station with an AC
power source.
For base station installation, you need
these items:
• 12-volt DC power supply that can
supply at least 1.5 amps (such as
Cat. No. 22-120)
Caution:
Most 12-volt DC power
supplies plug into a standard AC
outlet to produce DC power.
Before connecting your CB to a
12-volt DC power supply, read
and follow the instructions
included with the power supply.
• Base station antenna (such as
Cat. No. 21-967)
• Coaxial antenna cable and con-
nectors
Note:
Your local RadioShack
store carries coaxial antenna
cable and connectors.
