Antennas

CB
Because the maximum power output of the transmitter is limited by
the FCC, the quality of your antenna is very important. To achieve the
maximum transmission distance, Uniden strongly recommends that you
install only a high quality antenna. You have just purchased a superior
transceiver; don't diminish its performance by installing an inferior
antenna.
Only a properly matched antenna system will allow maximum power
transfer from the 50-ohm transmission line to the radiating element.
Your Uniden dealer is qualified to help you select the proper antenna for
your requirements. A whip style antenna may be used for automobile
installation.
A short "loaded" whip antenna is easier to install on an automobile, but
its efficiency is less than that of a full quarter-wave whip antenna.
Scanner
Your radio kit includes a window-mount antenna. Follow the directions
included with the antenna for installation.
