How to install your
Midland mobile CB.
This transceiver may be installed in
any 12-volt negative or positive ground-
system car or truck. Most current U.S.
and foreign vehicles use a negative
system, but some older models and
some newer large trucks may have a
positive ground.
Check the requirements for your
vehicle before you begin installation.
Generally, you have a negative-ground
system if the minus ( —) battery terminal
is connected to the motor block. Contact
your dealer in the event you are unable to
determine your vehicle’s polarity system.
Installation and operating
accessories furnished with
your Midland Mobile CB:
1 . Easy-removal mounting bracket
system.
2 . Microphone bracket system.
3. All main-unit and microphone
mounting hardware needed for
normal installation.
4. Plug-in microphone with coil cord.
5. Owner’s Manual.
Where to locate your CB
transceiver.
Your new Midland CB is designed
to be installed under the dash of
your vehicle.
^ Safety and convenience are the
primary considerations in deciding
exactly where to locate your radio.
Caution: Be sure that the unit is locatec
so that it does not interfere with the
driver or impair access to any controls.
Connecting cables must be routed and
secured in such a manner as not to
interfere with the operation of the
brake, accelerator or other controls.
Interference from either the unit or
connecting cables may contribute to
the loss of control of the vehicle.
Also be sure the CB installation
does not interfere with airbag
operation.
7

Mechanical mounting.
Step i: Heeding the caution, use the
mounting bracket as a template for
marking the location of screwholes
under your dash. Use an awl, nail or
other sharp, pointed object to mark
the metal.
Step 2: Drill a. 1/8” hole for each
screwhole in the mounting bracket.
Attach the bracket to the dash with the
3/8” Phillips machine screws provided.
Extreme care should be ‘exercised when
drilling into dash to avoid damage to
under-dash electronic ignition, cruise
control, instrument airbag, and/or accessory
wiring.
Step 3: Locate and secure the radio into
the mounting bracket allowing working
space for later power connections.
Power wiring.
Step 1: If you have not determined
whether your vehicle has a negative or
positive ground, do so now. Then
disconnect the leads from the battery
to prevent short circuits that can occur
during wiring.
Step 2; With negative ground, connect
the red wire — the one with in-line fuse
holder — to either the (a) fuse block, (b)
cigarette lighter or (c) directly to the
positive post on your battery.
(Usually, the fuse block is the most
convenient connecting point. It is also
possible to connect to the Accessory
terminal on the ignition switch, so that
your CB automatically goes off when the
ignition goes off, preventing accidental
battery drainage.)
Then tightly connect the black wire
directly to the vehicle’s metal frame.
With a positive ground, reverse the
wires, connecting the red/fuse-holder
wire to the frame, the black wire to your
DC power source. A light or meter can
be a good aid in locating a suitable
power source and ground.
In either case, a good, direct metal-to-
metal ground is essential for optimum
performance.
Step 3: Plug-in the power cord to the
receptacle provided on the back of the
transceiver.

accessibility.
Installation of microphone
hanger.
Mounting holes are provided on the
side of the transceiver for the microphone
hanger bracket. Alternately, the bracket
can be attached to the vehicle dash.
Connecting optional remote
speaker.
Locate the “EXT” jack on the main
unit rear panel. Firmly insert and seat
the speaker wire plug into the jack.
When connected, the external speaker
will override and “blank out” the in-unit
speaker standard with your Midland
Mobile CB.
Connecting optional Public
Address speaker.
Locate the “PA” jack on the main unit
back panel. Firmly insert and seat the
speaker wire plug into the jack.
Directions for mounting the optional
PA speaker are included along with
mounting hardware, with the speaker.

Antennas: How to select,
position, install and tune
the right one for you.
Basically, you have two types of
mobile CB antennas — full-length .
whip and loaded whip — and a variety
of types of mounts (depending on
where you locate your antenna) to
choose from.
Midland markets a broad line of
high-performance antennas. The
dealer who sold you your Midland CB
can advise which type is best for you.
Essentially, you have five location
choices: the roof, gutter, rear deck,
front cowl or rear bumper.
Where you decide to locate your
antenna will determine the type of
antenna you install. Again, consult
your Midland CB Dealer for advice and
guidance, and measure your needs
against the attributes of the various
Midland antenna models he carries.
Where you locate your antenna
does make a difference.
Some general rules for antenna
location that can aid CB performance:
1. Put your mount as high on the
vehicle as possible.
2. The higher the proportion of
antenna length that is above the
roof, the better.
3. If possible, mount the antenna in
the center of whatever surface you
choose.
4. Keep antenna cables away from
noise sources, such as the ignition
system, gauges, etc.
5. Make sure you have a solid metal-
to-metal ground.
6 . Exercise care to prevent cable
damage.
Antenna installation.
Follow the manufacturer’s
installation instructions carefully.
Warning: Never operate your CB
radio without attaching an antenna or
with a broken antenna cable. This can
result in damage to transmitter
circuitry.
Tuning your antenna.
Some antennas are factory tuned.
However, performance can usually be
improved by slightly lengthening or
shortening its length, using a Standing
Wave Ratio (SWR) meter.
For the exact procedures to be
used, refer to the antenna
manufacturer's installation manual.
You can buy an SWR meter
separately or have your antenna
checked by your Midland CB Dealer’s
service department.

Operating controls,
connectors: Their
functions and uses.
Starting at the upper left (driver's side)
of your Midland 77-250CXL and moving
counter-clockwise:
® Electronic S/RF/SWR/Modulation
Meter. This new high visibility,
meter is used four ways. (1) When
receiving, it gives tfre relative strength of
incoming signals. (2) When transmitting,
it shows RF (Radio Frequency) power
output. (3) As an “SWR” meter, it helps
match your antenna installation to your
transceiver. (4) When transmitting the
scale will peak with indicating modulation
levels.
[I] Microphone Connector. Securely
links your microphone to the main unit,
during use, yet allows quick
disconnection when out of service.
[U OffAfolume Control. Turns your CB
on and adjusts the sound level for
comfortable reception.
[C] Squelch Control. Turned clockwise, it
quiets the receiver when signals are not
being received and allows a quiet
standby operation.
The Squelch control functions only in
the receive mode and does not affect
receiver volume when signals are being
received.
To adjust, when no signals are present,
rotate the Squelch control clockwise until
the receiver is quieted.
Incoming signals will automatically
release the squelch action.
Careful adjustment is necessary as a
setting too far clockwise will not allow
weaker signals to release the squelch
action.
0 Mic (Microphone) Gain Control.
Adjusts the sensitivity of the microphone
amplifier circuit to suit individual voice
characteristics and ambient noise
conditions to provide maximum
intelligibility.
Rotating the control counter-clockwise
reduces the sensitivity and requires
“close talking” into the microphone.
VVhen operating from a noisy vehicle,
reducing the Mic Gain setting will usually
improve your transmitted voice clarity.
Check with other operators to determine
the exact setting best for your voice and
car.
0 RF Gain Control. Controls the
12

reception sensitivity (range) of your CB.
To.decrease RF Gain—to reduce
interference, for example, in congested
urban areas—rotate counter clockwise.
For full sensitivity position. The RF Gain
switch affects reception only. It will not
affect transmitter output power.
0 To Measure SWR.
1. Set the slide switch to SWR-CAL
(forward) position.
2. Activate the transmitter (by pressing
•the microphone push-to-talk bar) and
rotate the calibrate control to set the
meter to the right side “SET” position.
3. Set the slide switch to SWR position
and read the SWR. For example, a
reading of 1.5 actually means an SWR of
1.5:1. SWR of 3.0:1 or higher indicates
severe antenna mismatch.
[U Lighted LED Digital Channel
Indicator. Clearly displays the channel
selected by use of the selector dial just
below.
Turn the dial to the right to select a
higher-numbered channel spectrum, left
to select,channels below the number
indicated.
B Brite-Dim Switch. Dims or brightens
lighted controls for more comfortable day
or night visibility
ESP-OFF. ESP2 ™ noise filter adds heavy
duty filtering to reduce on air and SKIP noise,
see how ESP2 ™ works on page 16.
[S NB ON-OFF. Noise blanker switch
screens out atmospheric noise.
[Gj ANL/OFF/PA Switch. Switches your
CB speaker system from a CB function,
using the internal, main-unit speaker, to a
Public Address function, using an
external PA speaker, and back again.
When turned on, it operates in the
receiver to reduce atmospheric and
ignition noise.
0 CH9-OFF-CH19 Memory. Switch
instantly selects channel 9 (highway
emergency channel) or channel 19
(highway talk channel).
Note: Keep in off position for normal 40
channel operation.
0 S/RF-SWR-CAL Meter Switch.
Selects the mode of th-e SWR/CAL-S/RF
Meter. Rotate to right.

0 External Speaker Jack. Allows you
to attach an external speaker that will
override the unit’s Internal speaker.
Connection is made through the External
Speaker Jack on the back panel.
0 Pa Jack. An optional PA speaker may
be attached to your transceiver through
the PA output jack on the back panel.
This allows you to communicate with
pedestrians or other vehicles through
your CB microphone.

General CB
information.
In 1958, The Federal
Communications Commission
approved the use of 23 channels by
duly licensed Citizens Band radio
operators. The authorization was
expanded to 40 channels in 1977.
A simple, basic means of
communication, CB requires no more
skill or knowledge than the operation
of a standard AM or FM receiver.
Still, there are certain facts,
procedures and "rules of the road”
you’ll need to know in order to make
the most of your CB experience.
Make it “short and sweet.” When
using your CB, get on and off the air
as quickly as possible. Never use
profanity — which is against the law.
and subject to heavy penalties. Follow
the FCC rules outlined in Part 95.
Use Channel 9 in emergencies
only. Emergency channel 9 is
designated for this purpose and this
purpose alone.
The FCC has given public safety
agencies various "call signs" including
"0911" numbers, coinciding with the
"911" phone numbers these agencies
use in telephone communications.
The call signs for state-level
agencies use 3 letters and 4 numbers,
with the second and third letters being
the official Post Office state
abbreviation, e.g., "KS" for "Kansas."
Why and how to use the “10
Code.” Developed over the years by
official agencies in order to save time
and provide precise, clear messages,
the "10-Code" has become a popular
tool for CBers.

Factors affecting
effective CB range.
Essentially, they’re the same
influences that optimize or limit AM,
FM and other kinds of performance in
moving vehicles:
Terrain: Hills and valleys naturally
interrupt and shorten CB signals.
Weather. You can expect that CB
rangewill be reduced—perhaps
drastically— in times of atmospheric
disturbance, such as in a thunderstorm
or heavy snow. Sunspots, too, are
known to adversely affect CB
performance.
Obstructions. Inside a tunnel,
covered parking garage or viaduct, CB
sending/receiving capability may be
cut off altogether.
In short, you can expect to
maintain maximum transmitting/
receiving performance in flat, open
country in stable (not necessarily
clear) weather conditions.
Should effective range be limited
in these conditions, check to see that
your CB is connected properly and
your antenna adjusted correctly. It
may be necessary to consult your
Midland CB Dealer’s service
department.
How ESP2 ™ works to
make your CB sound
better.
The ESP2 ™ noise reduction system
constantly monitors the signal strength
and the type of noise present. When the
signal strength is too low for good
reception, the receiver sound is
automatically adjusted to dramatically
reduce the noise that comes through the
speaker. While the noise is decreased the
actual sounds you need to hear are
increased.
Skip interference can cause whistles and
howling sounds. Electrical interference from
power lines, ignition systems or other souro
can produce low humming and buzzing nois
These high and low sounds are not needed
communications. ESP2 ™ can determir the
difference between undesired noises and

sounds you want to hear and filter the noises
out.
ESP2 ™ can accomplish this without
decreasing receiver range (it usually increases
range).Most importantly, ESP2 ™ works by
itself and dose not need to be listening to other
ESP2 ™ equipped CB’s to be 100% effective.
The end result of ESP2^'^ is that you can
lower or completely stop using your squelch
control. You will hear weak signals that cause
other CB's to hear only noise. With this new
patented sound control system you will find
yourself using your CB more thereby
increasing your safety and enjoyment.
What causes noise?
If you have an abnormal noise problem, the
chances are your vehicle itself itself is the cause.
A CB receiver is a very sensitive instrument,
able to pick up small noise signals and amplify
them— particularly if the source of these
signals is within a few feet of your CB.
Any noise that comes from your CB almost
certainly comes from outside the unit itself.
Devices have been designed into your Midland
CB (a noise blanker or an automatic noise
limiter, for example) to minimize this kind of
distraction.
Trouble-shooting aids.
Frequently, there are simple, quick actions
you can take to eliminate or minimize such
problems as interference and noise.
Noise suppression.
A very common source of excessive noise is
the ignition system of a CB owner's vehicle. If
you suspect this is true, simply turn off the
ignition and set the key in the accessories
(ACC) position.
This way you'll provide power to the
transceiver, minus any ignition interference
that might exist. If the noise goes away, you
know instantly that the ignition system is the
culprit.
Still, there are a number of places in the
ignition system where noise can originate.
Sparkplugs and sparkplug wires are
probably the worst noise producers. To
eliminate this kind of noise, you can take any
of four simple measures: (1) Install resistive
sparkplug suppressors, (2) resistor sparkplugs
or (3) resistance-wire cabling, between plugs
and the distributor and also between the
distributor and ignition coil. (4) Replace old
plugs and sparkplug wiring and properly tune
the engine. This generally cures most noise.
Many cars come suppressor-cable
equipped. If yours didn’t (consult your vehicle
owners manual or dealer service department
to be sure), you can get it at any auto supply
store and, given a moderate amount of
mechanical skill. Install it yourself.
Caution: Do not undertake any ignition-
system repairs or modifications without
either professional help or some
automotive service experience.
Generator-brush sparking can create an
annoying “whine.” it’s caused by a dirty
commutator and is eliminated by polishing its
surface with fine-grade emery cloth, and
cleaning grooves with a small, sharp tool.
Voltage regulators can cause a “hashy"
sound in your CB when relay contacts jitter
open and closed when the battery is fully
charged. To eliminate this noise, mount
coaxial feedthrough capacitors at the battery
and armature terminals of the regulator box.
Alternator slip rings should also be kept
clean and good brush contact maintained to
minimize CB noise.
In addition, single-contact alternator
regulator boxes need a coaxial capacitor at the
ignition terminal. Double-contact units should
have a second capacitor at the battery
terminal. Shielding between the regulator and
alternator may be needed as well. Be sure to
ground the shield at both ends.
Infrequent, though real, noise generators
like your car’s heat fan, turn signals, electri-
windows and windshield-wiper motors can
also be silenced with a coaxial capacitor
(consult your serviceman).
Wheels and tires can also cause CB noise
also. Wheels noise is eliminated by putting
static-collector springs between the wheel
spindle bolt and grease retainer cup. Tire
static can be quieted with antistatic powder
applied inside each wheel.
Antenna corona-discharge noise
— most frequently occurring with sharp-
pointed “whip” models — can happen just
before or during electrical stroms. The only
cure is for the strom to blow over or pass.
