Installation
Note: To avoid acoustic feedback, the
speaker should be at least 6 feet from the
CB. If you experience feedback, avoid keying
the microphone until you have moved the
speaker away from the CB.
CONNECTING THE
COMPASS
Insert the compass cable’s plug into
SENSOR
on the back of the CB. Do not place the
compass cable near the DC cord or the
antenna cable.
CONNECTING AN
OPTIONAL MICROPHONE/
EARPHONE
You can connect an optional microphone or
earphone with a
3
/
32
-inch (2.5mm) mini plug
and a
1
/
8
-inch (3.5mm) plug to the
MIC/EAR
jacks on the front of the CB.
To connect a headset with Voice Activated
operation, we recommend you check the
response sensitivity of the VOX circuit before
installation. Different Voice Activation
devices provide different performance
results.
Traffic Safety
Do not use an earphone with your
transceiver when operating a motor vehicle
in or near traffic. Doing so can create a traffic
hazard and could be illegal in some areas.
If you use an earphone with your transceiver
be very careful. Do not listen to a continuous
broadcast. Even though some earphones/
headphones let you hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal volume
levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
USING VEHICLE BATTERY
POWER
Follow these steps to connect the transceiver
to vehicle battery power.
1. Connect the red wire (with the inline
fuse holder) on the back of the
transceiver to a point in your vehicle’s
fuse block that has power only when the
ignition is in the ACC (accessory) or ON
position.
2. Connect the black wire to a metal part of
the vehicle’s frame (chassis ground).
Caution: Do not connect the black wire
to a non-metallic (plastic) part, or to any
part insulated from the vehicle’s chassis
by a non-metallic part.
USING THE TRANSCEIVER
AS A BASE STATION
Although this transceiver is designed mainly
for mobile use, you can also use it as a base
station with an AC power source.
For base station installation, you need these
items:
• 12-volt DC power supply that can supply
at least 2 amps
Caution: Most 12-volt DC power
supplies plug into a standard AC outlet
to produce DC power. Before
connecting your CB to a 12-volt DC
