OPERATION
Before you start using your CB, you
should know how to use it effectively
and courteously. “CB Operation Tips”
contains information that will help you
get more enjoyment from using your CB.
Caution: Do not attempt to use your CB
without first connecting an antenna.
TURNING ON THE CB
AND RECEIVING
TRANSMISSIONS
1. Turn SQUELCH fully counterclock-
wise.
2. Set CH-9/NOR/CH-19 to NOR , S/RF/
SWR/CAL to S/RF (send and
receive), and CB/WX/PA to CB .
3. To turn on the CB, turn OFF/VOL-
UME clockwise until it clicks and
continue turning until you hear a
hissing sound. The
TX/RX indicator
lights, the CB displays the last-tuned
channel number, and the SWR/RF/
signal meter lights.
Note: If necessary, set DIM/BRT to
DIM to dim the meter and channel
display, or to BRT to brighten them.
4. Turn SQUELCH clockwise until the
hissing sound stops.
Note: If the CB picks up unwanted,
partial or very weak transmissions,
turn
SQUELCH clockwise to
decrease the CB’s sensitivity to
these signals. Turn
SQUELCH coun-
terclockwise if you want to listen to a
weak or distant station.

able listening level.
