Warning
Do not try to transmit if the antenna has not been connected, this could seriously damage the transceiver.
This equipment has been calibrated and tested at factory; do not open it and try to tamper with its
internal components.
Connecting the antenna
The lead-in antenna cable must be terminated with a PL-259 connector. Only use antennas tuned on
27MHz and use a RG-58/U shielded cable with a typical impedance of 50 Ohm.
Microphone bracket
Install the microphone bracket in a conformable position inside the vehicle, making sure that the cable or
the microphone itself do not interfere with driving operations.
Interference caused by the distribution system of your vehicle
Modern cars no longer cause problems for the shielding of distribution cables and ignition system, therefore the
transceiver should not suffer any interference caused by engine operation.
