  • Page 4 NOTE: This transceiver has been designed for use in Class D operation in the 27 MHz Citizens Band Radio Service. This transceiver is also designed to meet the Federal Communications Commission requirements applicable to equipment operating in Class D service, and is not to be used for any other purpose.
  • Page 5: Installation

    Mounting and Connection The PALOMAR SSB-500 is supplied with a universal mounting bracket. The transceiver is held in the bracket by four bol ts permitting adjustment at the most convenient angle.
  • Page 6 The electrical noise may corne from several sources. Many possibilities exist and variations between vehicles requires dif­ ferent solutions to reduce the noise. Consult with your PALOMAR dealer or a CB Radio technician for help in locating and correcting the source of severe noise.
  • Page 7 from the 50 ohms transmission line to the radiating element. In mobile instal­ lations (cars, trucks, boats, etc.), an antenna system that is non-directional should be used. A vertically polarized quarter-wave length whip antenna provides the most reliable operation and greatest range. The shorter, loaded type whip antennas are more attractive, compact and adéquate for applications where the maximum possible distance is not required.
