Introduction

Select a location for the transceiver and microphone bracket that is convenient for
operation. In automobiles, the transceiver is usually mounted to the underneath of the
dash panel, with the microphone bracket beside it.

A universal mounting bracket is supplied along with self-tapping
screws and star washers. The transceiver is held in the
universal mounting bracket by two thumb screws, permitting
adjustment at the most convenient angle.

To mount and connect your transceiver:

1. 

Hold the radio with mounting bracket in the exact

  location desired. Remove the mounting bracket
  and use it as a template to mark the location for
  the mounting screws.

2. 

Drill necessary holes and secure mounting

 bracket in location.

3. 

Connect the antenna cable plug to the receptacle

marked “ANT” on the back of the unit.

4. 

Connect the red lead of the DC power cord

to an accessory 12 volt fuse.

5. 

Connect the black lead to the negative side

of the automobile. This is usually the chassis.
Any convenient location with good electrical
contact (remove paint) may be used.

6.

  Mount the microphone bracket in a convenient location 

that does not interfere with vehicle operation using the 
two screws supplied.

7.

  Connect the microphone RJ-45 plug to the 19 MINI RJ-45 

front panel jack. Then install the radio into it's mounting 
bracket securely.

NOTE

For improved CB radio performance, 

connect the radio power leads directly to the 

vehicle battery

. This helps to ensure the following: 1) reduces conducted power line noise 

into radio by taking advantage of the mechanical filtering properties of the vehicle battery.  
2)  Using the correct wire gauge between the battery and radio, helps to minimize Voltage 
drop to the radio transmitter section to maximize transmitter RF output power.
