TROUBLESHOOTING
If at any time you suspect that your CB is not working as it should, refer to the fol-
lowing chart to see if you can eliminate the problem. If these solutions do not solve
the problem, do not attempt repairs or adjustment yourself. The CB should be ser-
viced only by a qualified radio technician. If you still have problems, take your CB to
a local RadioShack store for assistance.
