[. . . ] q A 3-way combination antenna allows you to operate all three bands (AM, FM, and CB) with one antenna. However, it will provide a shorter transmitting and receiving range than a standard "single band" antenna designed for CB use only. You may also notice a higher SWR with this type of antenna. Connecting an External Speaker (Optional) Connect an optional external speaker to the External Speaker Jack on the rear of the transceiver. For the external speaker, use an 8W speaker with at least a 4-watt rating. When connected, the external speaker automatically disables the internal speaker. The external speaker will provide high performance remote receiver monitoring. Connecting a Public Address (PA) Speaker (Optional) Connect an optional Public Address speaker to the PA Speaker Jack on the back of the transceiver. For the PA speaker, use an 8W speaker with at least a 4-watt rating. Be sure the PA speaker is directed away from the microphone to avoid acoustic feedback. When you are operating the PA system with high output level, greater separation and isolation between the microphone and PA speaker may be required to prevent feedback. When this unit is used as a public address system, set the CB/PA Switch to the PA position. MOUNTING THE RADIO TO THE BRACKET 1. Align the mounting holes on both sides of the radio with the holes on the mounting bracket. Insert the mounting knobs and tighten the knobs until the radio is secure. To avoid damaging the radio casing, do not overtighten the knobs. 5 To Receive Be sure that the power source, antenna, and microphone are properly connected before proceeding. Turn unit ON and set VOLUME Control to a comfortable level. 2. Set switch to NB/ANL. Dynamic Squelch Control automatically sets Squelch to the optimal level for stronger transmission and signal clarity. To scan for weaker signals, turn Dynamic Squelch Control off and perform the following steps: 4a. Turn SQUELCH fully clockwise so only strong signals can get through. 4b. Turn SQUELCH fully counter-clockwise until you hear a hiss. Everything gets through - noise, weak signals, and strong signals. 4c. Turn SQUELCH back clockwise until the hiss stops. Set SQUELCH only when the radio is not receiving a strong signal. Adjust RF GAIN knob to optimize reception in strong signal areas. 6. Adjust CLARIFIER knob to reduce or eliminate adjacent channel interference. 7.
