Antenna Information - Maxon HCB-10C El Manual Del Propietario

ANTENNA INFORMATION

The maximum allowable CB transmitting power
output is limited by FCC regulations. The antenna
is a major component in the strength of the radio's
transmission signal and its reception range. The
radio requires a 50 ohm mobile or base antenna.
For greater range and clarity, we recommend a
vertically polarized telescopic antenna (like
Maxon's optional WTA -1) or mobile magnetic
mount CB/weather antenna (Maxon's optional
WTA-4W).
The "Rubber Duck" antenna included with this
radio is suited for those applications where maxi-
mum range is not needed.
To convert the HCB-10C portable to a base radio:
Disconnect the "Rubber Duck" or telescopic
antenna and connect your base station antenna.
The HCB-10C has a female BNC connector,
therefore you will need to adapt your base station
antenna accordingly.
WARNING: When installing or removing a base
station antenna, do so with extreme caution. If the
antenna falls, LET IT GO. It could come in contact
with an overhead power line and cause severe
injury or death to anyone attempting to catch it.
If the antenna does come in contact with a power
line, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE IT...CALL
YOUR LOCAL POWER COMPANY.
