Mobile Configuration - PRESIDENT RANDY II FCC Manuel Du Propriétaire

Welcome to the world of the new generation of CB radios. The new
PRESIDENT range gives you access to top performance CB equipment.
With the use of up-to-date technology, which guarantees unprece-
dented quality, your PRESIDENT RANDY II FCC is a new step in personal
communication and is the surest choice for the most demanding of
professional CB radio users. To ensure that you make the most of all
its capacities, we advise you to read carefully this manual before
installing and using your PRESIDENT RANDY II FCC.
A) MOBILE CONFIGURATION
1) ANTENNA INSTALLATION
- Remove the flexible antenna (C2) from the device.
- Replace the antenna (C2) with the antenna adapter (C3)
- Connect the CB antenna to the antenna adapter (C3).
a) Choosing your antenna
- For CB radios, the longer the antenna, the better its results. Your
dealer will be able to help you with your choice of antenna.
b) Mobile antenna
- Must be fixed to the vehicle where there is a maximum of metallic
surface (ground plane), away from windscreen mountings.
- If you already have a radio-telephone antenna installed, the CB
antenna should be higher than this.
- There are two types of antenna: pre-regulated which should be
used on a good ground plane (e.g. car roof or lid of the boot),
and adjustable which offer a much larger range and can be
used on a smaller ground plane (see § 3, ADJUSTMENT OF SWR).
- For an antenna which must be fixed by drilling, you will need a
good contact between the antenna and the ground plane.
To obtain this, you should lightly scratch the surface where the
screw and tightening star are to be placed.
- Be careful not to pinch or flatten the coaxial cable (as this runs
the risk of break down and/or short-circuiting).
- Connect the antenna to the adapter (C3).
c) Fixed antenna
- A fixed antenna should be installed in a clear space as possible. If
it is fixed to a mast, it will perhaps be necessary to stay it, accord-
ing to the laws in force (you should seek professional advice). All
PRESIDENT antennas and accessories are designed to give max-
imum efficiency to each CB radio within the range.
