RECEIVER Sensitivity SSB : 0.3 tiV for 10 dB (S+ N)/N at greater than V>- watt of audio output. AM: 1 juV for 10 dB (S + N)/N at greater than V>- watt of audio output. FM: 1.0 V for 20 dB (S + N)/N at greater than Y>- watt of audio output.
Installation LOCATION Plan the location of the transceiver and microphone bracket before starting the installation. Select a location that is convenient for operation and does not interfere with the driver or passengers in the vehicle. In automobiles, the transceiver is usually mounted below the dash panel, with the microphone bracket beside.it.
IGNITION NOISE INTERFERENCE Use of a mobile receiver at low signal levels is normally limited by the presence of electrical noise. The primary source of noise in automobile installations is from the generator and ignition system in the vehicle. Under most operating conditions, when signal level is adequate, the background noise does not present a serious problem.
TUNING THE ANTENNA FOR OPTIMUM SWR Since there is such a wide variety of base and mobile antennas, this section will strictly concern itself to the various types of mobile adjustable antennas. Because the antenna length is directly related to the channel frequency, it must be tuned to resonate optimally all 480 channels of the transceiver.
D. Try a different location on your car (keeping in mind the radiation pattern you wish). E. Is the antenna perfectly vertical ? F. Try a different location in your neighborhood. Stay away from large metal objects when adjusting (metal telephone or light posts, fences, etc.) External Speaker The external speaker jack (EXT.
Operation CONTROL FUNCTIONS There are Thirteen controls and five indicators on the front panel of your SS-7000 FRONT PANEL 1. OFF/ON/VOLUME (inner dual concentric). Turn clockwise to apply power to the unit and to set the desired listening level. During normal CB operation, the VOLUME control is used to adjust the output level obtained either at the transceiver speaker or the external speaker, if used.

6. I'OW KR SELECTOR. This switch selects the desired RF power output. 50 watts 25 watts 5 watts 25 " 5 " 75 " 15 " 6. MODE (AM/FM/USB/LSB) SWITCH. This switch is used to select AM, FM, USB or LSB mode of operation. Unless the station with which communication is desired is equipped with SSB, the AM or FM mode is normally used.
18. NB SWITCH. This switch activates the noise blanker circuit when placed in NB position (LED Light up). The noise blanker is very effective for repetitive impulse noise such as ignition interference. REAR PANEL 19. ANTENNA. Accepts 50 ohm coaxial cable with a type PL-259 plug to be connected.
PRESS-TO-TALK MICROPHONE The receiver and transmitter are controlled by the press-to-talk switch on the microphone. Press the switch and the transmitter is activated, release switch to receive. When transmitting, hold the microphone two inches from the mouth and speak clearly in a normal "voice".

SSB reception differs from standard AM reception in that SSB receiver does not require a carrier or opposite sideband to produce an intelligible signal. A single-sideband transmitted signal consists only of the upper or the lower sideband and no carrier is transmitted. The elimination of the carrier from the AM signal helps to eliminate the biggest cause of whistles and tones heard on channels which make even moderately strong AM signals unreadable.
