  • Page 9: Installation

    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.
  • Page 10: Connecting The Power Cords

    Connecting the Power Cords Uniden recommends connecting the power lead to the Ignition Switch Accessory Terminal. This way, the transceiver is automatically turned off when the ignition switch is turned off. As an alternative, the power cord may be connected to an available terminal on the fuse block or to a point in the wiring harness.

    PA MODE Using the PA mode requires an optional speaker. 1. Switch to PA. 2. Press and hold PTT to speak. 3. Release when finished. To prevent acoustic feedback, separate the microphone from the speaker when operating the PA at high output levels.
