Installation; Antenna Installation - GME TX3350 Instruction Manual

INSTALLATION

The TX3350 main unit is supplied with a slim, U-shaped
mounting cradle. The cradle can be screwed or bolted in any
convenient location in your vehicle (under or above the dash,
on the centre console, etc.) using the mounting slots provided
in the cradle. The TX3350 contains a built-in speaker, and
should be installed in a convenient location in the vehicle's
cabin as the radio's loud speaker. Alternatively it can be
installed in a less audible location and an extension speaker
used instead.
The LCD Controller Microphone comes complete with a
mounting clip. Its small size and light weight design allows it
to be mounted in almost any convenient position accessible
to the driver.
When installing the radio, avoid mounting it close to
heaters or air conditioners. Screw the LCD Controller
Microphone's clip to a firm surface. Fit the TX3350 into the
cradle and tighten the gimbal knobs. Place the LCD Control-
ler Microphone in its mounting clip. Finally, plug the LCD
Controller Microphone into the front panel of the TX3350
and the power and antenna leads to the sockets provided
on the rear of the radio.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION

It is essential to select a good quality, high efficiency, 477
MHz antenna. A poor quality antenna or one not designed
for the specific frequency band you are using will give very
poor performance.
GME have a wide range of suitable 477 MHz UHF CB
antennas to suit most installations and applications. We
recommend contacting your local GME retailer for advice.
Connect to the antenna cable to the rear antenna socket
using a PL259 coaxial connector.

Noise suppression
The inherent design of FM transceivers result in a high
level of resistance to ignition and electrical interference.
However in some installations it may be necessary to take
additional steps to help reduce or eliminate noise interference.
During installation, try to route the DC battery leads, the
antenna lead or any accessory wires away from the engine
compartment, ignition or alternator wiring. If the noise
continues, try fitting a suppression kit in which case we
recommend you consult an auto electrician for advice specific
to your installation.
Higher frequency electrical interference caused by electric
motors can be suppressed directly at the motor terminals.
