CB ANTENNA INSTALLATION

For the most reliable operation and maximum range, Cobra recommends using a vertically polarized, quarter wave length whip antenna (illustration A).

Shorter, loaded-type whips are adequate when maximum range is not required (illustration B).

NOTE: Mobile installations (cars, trucks, boats, etc) should be made only with a non-directional antenna system.

A standard antenna connector (Type SO-239) is provided on the Connector Box for easy connection to a standard PL-259 cable termination.

Cobra antenna models are recommended; see your local CB dealer or order directly from Cobra. See order form on page 40.

For maximum efficiency in boat installations, a ground plate is required, unless the vessel has a steel hull. Consult your CB dealer for information regarding an adequate grounding system.
