How To Use Ypr Cb - PRESIDENT HARRY Manuel D'utilisation

FOR THE FIRST TIME (without transmitting and without using the
«push-to-talk» switch on the microphone):
a) Connect the microphone
b) Check the antenna connections
c) Turn the set on by turning the knob VOLUME clockwise.
d) Turn the SQUELCH knob to minimum (anti-clockwise). Adjust the volume to a comfortable
level.
e) Go to Channel 20 using the rotary knob on the front panel.
5) ADJUSTMENT OF SWR (Standing wave ratio):
WARNING: This must be carried out when you use your CB radio for the first time (and
whenever you re-position your antenna). The adjustment must be carried out in an
obstacle-free area.
* Using an external SWR meter (e.g. SWR 1 or SWR 2):
a) To connect the SWR meter :
- Connect the SWR meter between the CB radio and the antenna as close as possible
to the CB (use a maximum of 40 cm cable, type President CA 2C).
b) To adjust the SWR meter:
- Set the CB to channel 20.
- Put the switch on the SWR meter to position CAL ou FWD.
- Press the «push-to-talk» switch on the microphone to transmit.
- Bring the index needle to by using the calibration key.
- Change the switch to position SWR (reading of the SWR level). The reading on the V.U.
meter should be as near as possible to 1. If this is not the case, re-adjust your antenna
to obtain a reading as close as possible to 1. (An SWR reading between 1 and 1.8 is
acceptable).
- It will be necessary to re-calibrate the SWR meter after each adjustment of the antenna.
Your CB is now ready for use.
B) HOW TO USE YOUR CB:
1) ON/OFF - VOLUME:
a) To turn the set on, turn the knob (1) clockwise
b) To increase the sound level, turn the same knob further clockwise.
2) ASC (Automatic Squelch Control)/SQUELCH :
Suppresses undesirable back-ground noises when there are no communication.
Squelch does not effect neither sound nor transmission power, but allows a considerable
improvement in listening comfort.
a) ASC: Automatic Squelch Control
Worldwide patent, a PRESIDENT exclusivity
No repetitive manual adjustment and a permanent improvement in listening comfort
when this function is active. It can be disconnected by turning the switch (2) clockwise,
in this case the manual squelch control becomes active again.
b) Manual squelch
Turn the squelch knob clockwise to the exact point where all back-ground noise
disappears. This adjustment should be done with precision as, if set to maximum, (i.e.
fully clockwise) only the strongest signals will be received.
3) RF GAIN:
This knob is for adjusting sensitivity during reception. For long distance communications
RF GAIN should be set to maximum. RF GAIN can be reduced to avoid distortion, when
your correspondent is close by and who does not have the RF POWER function.
The normal setting of this knob is on maximum (fully clockwise).
4) CHANNEL SELECTOR ROTARY KNOB:
Turning this knob allows you to choose a channel (1-40) for transmitting and receiving.
5) DISPLAY:
The display shows all the different functions. The bargraph shows the level of reception
and the level of power emitted. The TX LED lights up when the set goes into transmission
mode.
6) ANL:
Automatic Noise Limiter. This filter allow the reduction of back ground noise, and some
reception interference.
