F E A T U R E S AND CONTROLS VOLUME/POWER ON-OFP This combination contro! applies power to your TS-340 DX and adjusts the receiver volume. The switch should be turned clockwise from the " O ff” position. You will hear an audible "c lic k ". The channel LED and meter will light. - Page 5 MODE FUNCTION LIGHT The TS-340 DX has a dynamie 3-way mode function light. In the upper sideband mode the light will be green. The lower sideband mode w ill show red. The AM mode will show both red and green.
- Page 6 S/RF-CAL-SWR METER FUNCTION SWITCH AND CALIBRATION NOTE: THE TRANSCEIVER MUST BE IN THE AM MODE FOR THE SWR FUNCTION TO BE USED. In the bottom position of the 3-position selector switch, the meter opérâtes normally as signal in, RF output meter. In the center and top positions of this switch, the SWR (standing wave radio) funcitons are activated.
- Page 7 Release the switch to receive. When transmitting, hold the microphone 3 to 4 inches from your mouth and speak clearly at normal voice levels. The TS-340 DX uses a newly designed high level output microphone. It delivers maximum talk power.
- Page 8 NEGATIVE CROUNDING Almost all cars and most trucks are negative ground. Your TS-340 DX is designed to operate on the negative ground only. In the negative ground Systems, the minus (— ) pole of the battery is attached to the car body, engine block, etc.

Page 9: Antenna Requirem Ent
ANTENNA IN S T A L L A T IO N When the TS-340 DX is used as a base station, any Citizens Band beam, dipole, ground-plane or vertical antenna may be used. A ground-plane type will provide greater coverage, and since it is essentially non-directional, it is ideal in base station to mobile operation. -

ALIG N M EN T INSTRUCTIONS RECEIVER 1) Set the Mode Switch to AM, Volume Control at maximu, Squelch at minimum and Clarifier in the center. 2) Set the SSG on Channel 40 and Channel Selector of the unit on Channel 40. Then, connect the Power Supply and 8 ohms Dummy Load to the transceiver unit. - Page 13 YOU AND YOUR ANTENNA Three main components comprise a typical Citizensband installation. They are: your transceiver, an antenna, and the coaxial cable which connects the antenna to the transceiver. It is important that ali . three pièces are installed correctly to give the best possible range and reliable performance. We hope this pamphlet w ill be helpful for you to realize the maximum performance of your installation.
- Page 14 Power Lösses 1.3:1 1.5:1 1.7:1 10:1 TUNING VOUR ANTENNA For optimum performance, an SWR meter should be used to tune the antenna. However, since this meter may cost from §15.00 to §30.00, not everyone may want to invest in its purchase. If possible, borrow one.
