PATTERN
2) BASIC OPERATIONS TO BE CARRIED OUT BEFORE
USING YOUR SET FOR THE FIRST TIME (without trans-
mitting and without using the «push-to-talk» switch)
a) Check the antenna connections.
b) Turn the set on by turning the Power knob (1) clockwise.
c) Set the squelch OFF. See § 11 and 12 page 14.
d) Adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
e) Go to channel 20 by using the channel selectors s or t key (3).
3) ADJUSTMENT OF SWR (Standing wave ratio)
WARNING: This must be carried out when you use your CB radio
for the first time (and whenever you re-position your antenna).
The adjustment must be carried out in an obstacle-free area.
* Adjustment with external SWR-meter (e.g. TOS-1 PRESI-
DENT)
a) To connect the SWR meter :
- Connect the SWR meter between the CB radio and the antenna
as close as possible to the CB (use a maximum of 15.75 inches /
40 cm, type President CA-2C).
b) To adjust the SWR meter:
- Set the CB on channel 20.
Put the switch on the SWR-meter to position FWD (calibration).
-
- Press the «push-to-talk» switch on the microphone to transmit.
- Bring the index needle to t by using the calibration key.
Change the switch to position REF (reading of the SWR level).
-
The reading on the Meter should be as near as possible to 1. If
this is not the case, re-adjust your antenna to obtain a reading
as close as possible to 1. (An SWR reading between 1 and 1.8 is
acceptable).
