loudspeaker cable's in-line connector.

Plug the power cable into the power supply in-line connector on the radio,

Installing the Antenna
The whip antenna is supplied with approximately 4.8 m of coaxial cable and terminated
at the radio end with a BNC connector.
For best all round performance the antenna should be mounted in the centre of the roof.
Alternative positions give degraded performance, the numbers on the diagram below
giving the order of preference. The antenna radiation patterns, shown on the next page,
illustrate the difference between centre roof and wing mounting.
Siting the antenna is a compromise between performance and practicality. If a sunroof
is fitted to the vehicle, locate the antenna so that it will not be damaged when the
sunroof is opened. Mounting at the front of a sunroof can cause annoyance due to wind
noise from the antenna when the sunroof is opened.
