Installation 

 

LOCATION 

       Plan the location of the transceiver and microphone bracket before 
starting the installation. Select a location that is convenient for operation and 
does not interfere with the driver or passengers in the vehicles. In 
automobiles, the transceiver is usually mounted below the dash panel, with 
the microphone bracket beside it. 

 

MOUNTING THE CONNECTION 

Your transceiver is supplied with a universal mounting bracket. When 

mounting the bracket and radio to your car, make sure it is mechanically 
strong. Also provide a good electrical connection to the chassis of the 
vehicle. Proceed as follows to mount the transceiver: 

 

1.  After you have determined the most convenient location in your vehicle, 

hold the transceiver with mounting bracket in the exact location desired. 
If nothing will interfere with mounting it in the desired position, remove 
the mounting bolts. Before drilling the holes, make sure nothing will 
interfere with the installation of the mounting bolts. 

 

2.  Connect the antenna cable plug to the standard receptacle on the rear 

panel. Most antennas are terminated with a type PL-259 plug and mate 
with the receptacle. 

 

3.  Connect the red DC power input wire (with the fuse) to +13.8V DC. 

This wire extends from the rear panel. In automobile installation, 
+13.8V DC is usually obtained from the accessory contact on the 
ignition switch. This prevents the set being left on accidentally when the 
driver leaves the car and als o permits operating the unit without the 
engine running. Locate the accessory contact on most ignition switches 
by tracing the power wire from the AM broadcast receiver in the car. 

 

4.  Connect the black lead to –13.8V DC. This is usually the chassis of the 

car. Any convenient location with good electrical contact (remove paint) 
may be used. 

 

5.  Mount the microphone bracket on the right side of the transceiver or 

near the transceiver, using two screws supplied. When mounting in an 
automobile, place the bracket under the dash so the microphone is 
readily accessible.
