Using the Antenna’s
Magnetic Base
Note: The supplied magnetic mount
base is designed for emergency use
only while your vehicle is stopped. If
you want to use the CB when the ve-
hicle is moving, you need an optional
standard mount antenna (available
at your local Radio Shack store). You
also need a plug adapter (Cat. No.
278-208) to connect the standard an-
tenna’s PL-259 plug to
EXT ANT on
your CB.
1. While your vehicle is stopped,
screw the antenna into the hole
on top of the magnetic base.
2. Place the base as near as possi-
ble to the center of your vehi-
cle’s roof.
Warning: Do not remove the
metallic backing on the bottom
of the magnetic base.
3. Plug the magnetic base’s wire
into EXT ANT .
