TCB-560 transceiver is designed to have a good performance in any
conditions that the transceiver operates, using rugged build chassis,
PCB’s and components. This transceiver is also designed for users’
convenience, implementing human ergonomics to locate the knobs
and buttons in the proper places. The combination of well designed
knobs and buttons as well as user friendly graphic layouts will lead
users to quickly adapt themselves for the easy operation. The newly
applied menu mode will make professional users more satisfactory
with pleasure. The elegant and luxury blue LED light supporting the
face design will go well with any vehicles.
This instruction manual has been designed to enable you to get the
best use from your CB Transceiver, therefore you are recommended to
take a few minutes to read this instruction manual before initial use of
your CB Transceiver.
Your transceiver is supplied with a full range of accessories to help you
get started and virtually benefit from all the features straight away.
Plan the location of the transceiver and microphone first, which is most
convenient for the operation. The transceiver should normally be
mounted horizontally, but may be mounted vertically. The bracket
supplied can be fitted above or below the case allowing the TCB-560 to
be cradled by the bracket or suspended from it.

Installing An Antenna
It is very important to select a good quality high efficiency 27MHz
antenna. A poor quality antenna or one not designed for the
27MHz band will give very poor performance and could cause
damage to the transceiver.
Warning : Never try the operation of your transceiver before
connecting a proper antenna in order not to cause any damage.
Place the antenna as high as possible.
The longer the antenna is, normally the better is the
performance of the transceiver.
Try to mount the antenna in the centre of the surface that you
select.
Make sure that you have a solid metal-to-metal ground
connection.
Be careful not to damage the cable during the installation.
