Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 40 Channel Mobile
CB. Your CB is a great way to communicate with other CB
radio operators. You can mount it in a vehicle for mobile
use, or in your home for use as a base station.
To use this CB, you must connect a mobile or base station
antenna. Your local RadioShack store has a wide variety of
antennas. For more information, see “Connecting an
Antenna” on Page 3.
