Before operating, install an efcient, well-tuned antenna. The success
of your installation will depend largely on the type of antenna and its
correct installation. The transceiver can give excellent results if the
antenna system and its installation are given careful attention.
Use a 50Ω impedance antenna and low-loss coaxial feed-line that
has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω, to match the transceiver input
impedance. Coupling the antenna to the transceiver via feed-lines having
The possible locations of antenna on a car are shown as following:
3Initial Installation
REPLACING FUSES
If you use the transceiver for a long period when the vehicle battery is
not fully charged, or when the engine is OFF, the battery may become
discharged, and will not have sufcient reserves to start the vehicle. Avoid
using the transceiver in these conditions.
Transmitting without first connecting an antenna or other

matched load may damage the transceiver. Always connect
the antenna to the transceiver before transmitting.
All xed stations should be equipped with a lightning arrester to

reduce the risk of re, electric shock, and transceiver damage.
