CONNECTING AN ANTENNA
There are many different types of antennas for mobile CBs, each with its own benefits. You can choose one that best fits your needs, available at your local RadioShack store.
Note: If you are using this CB as a base sta- tion, see “Using the CB as a Base Station” on Page 7.
When you choose an antenna, keep in mind that, for the best performance, you should mount the antenna:
•as high as possible on your vehicle, home or building
•as far as possible from sources of elec- trical noise
•as vertically as possible
Once you choose an antenna, follow its mounting instructions. Then route the cable to the CB and connect the cable to ANTEN- NA on the back of the CB.
