4. Installing the device

When installing your radio in the vehicle, make sure you do not
damage any wiring or other vehicle components that may be
hidden in the place of installation.

4.1. Installing the antenna

For the ultimate performance of your CB radio, it is crucial that
you use a high quality antenna.
• Only use antennas that are suitable for the frequency
range of 26.565 – 27.405 MHz.
• Connect the antenna to the antenna socket on the rear of
the device using the included antenna cable with a PL259
plug.
• For the best range, mount the antenna as high as possible
to ensure unobstructed transmission in all directions.
• Operation of standard CB radio mobile antennas requires
a good conductive connection to the metal mounting
surface.
• There are special "no ground plane" (NGP) antennas for
camping vehicles or trucks with plastic superstructures.
However, they do not work directly on metal surfaces.
• Do not use the radio to transmit messages without a
connected antenna as the radio can be damaged or
destroyed.
