Mounting andConnection

Mounting and ConnectionHold the radio with the mounting bracket inthe exact desired location. If there is no inter-ference, remove the bracket and use it as atemplate to mark the location for the mount-ing screws.

LocationPlan location of transceiver and microphonebracket before starting the installation.

Select a location that is convenient for operation,yet does not inte rfe re with the dri ver or passenger.

The transceiver is usually mounted to the under-side of the dash with the microphone bracketbeside it.

Note

The transceiver is held in the universal mounting bracket bytwo thumbscrews which allowfor adjustment at a convenientangle.

The bracket includes two self-tapping screws and star wash-ers. The mounting must bemechanically strong and conveniently located.

Note

Connecting to a fuse circuit controlled by the ignition switchprevents the unit from being lef ton accidentally, and also permits operating the unit without running the engine.

Note

In positive earth vehicles the redwire goes to the chassis and theblack wire is connected to theignition switch.

In a negative earthed vehicle, connect the redlead of the DC power cord to an accessory 12volt fuse.

Connect the black lead to the negative side ofthe vehicle. This is usually the chassis. Any con-venient location with a good electrical contact(remove paint) may be used.

5

Plug power cable into back of unit marked“Power”. Be sure to observe polarity markings.

Mount the microphonebracket on the side of theunit (nearer the driver)using two screws sup-plied. Bracket should beplaced under the dash so that microphone isreadily accessible.

Note

Before installing the CB radio,visually check the vehicle’sbattery connection to deter-mine which terminal, positiveor negative, is earthed to theengine block (or chassis). Anegatively earthed vehiclehas its negative lead earthedto the chassis.

Ignition Noise InterferenceAntennas

Use of a mobile receiver at low signal levels isnormally limited by the presence of electricalnoise. The primary source of noise in cars is fromthe alternator and the ignition system. Typically,when signal level is adequate, the backgroundnoise does not present a serious problem. Also,when extremely low-level signals are beingreceived, the transceiver may be operated withthe vehicle’s engine turned off.The unit requiresvery little current and therefore will not signifi-cantly discharge the vehicle’s battery.

Even though the Cobra UK 25 LTD ST has an auto-matic noise limiter, in some installations ignitioninterference may be high enough to make goodcommunications impossible. Many possibilitiesexist and variations between vehicles requiredifferent solutions. Consult your COBRA dealer ora 2-way radio technician for help in locating thesource of a severe noise.

CB AntennaThe antenna is critical in affecting transmissiondistance. Only a properly matched antenna sys-tem will allow maximum power output. Cobraloaded type antenna models are highly recom-mended for most installations.

Marine InstallationThe transceiver will not operate at maximum effi-ciency in a boat without an earth plate, (unless ithas a steel hull). Before attempting installation ,consult your dealer for information regarding anadequate earthing system and prevention ofelectrolysis between fittings in the hull and water.

CB Antenna

Note

For optimum performance inpassenger cars the ideal anten-na location is on the centre ofthe roof. Second choice is on thecentre of the boot.

NoteAntenna bracket must be earth-ed to the chassis of the vehicle .

Push and release the ST button. Red LED is illuminated when SoundTracker™ is turned on.

The SoundTrackerTM SystemWhile previous systems only “blanket out” or limitnoise in higher sound frequencies, the revolution-ary new SoundTrackerTM System actually reducesnoise while leaving the signal intact in the recep-tion mode. In the transmission mode, it actuallystrengthens the signal,providing you with a significant reduction in noise on reception and transmission.

Sound clarity is measured by the ratio of the signal level to the noise level.The higher the signal-to-noise ratio,the better the sound.

How SoundTrackerTM WorksOn Reception - “Cuts noise coming in”

With a normal CB, distant signals fall belowthe squelch level and are unintelligible. With aSoundTrackerTM CB, the noise level is cut by up to90%,which increases the signal-to-noise ratio and dramatically improves signal clarity.This alsoallows you to reduce the squelch level significant-ly, which greatly expands your listening range.

On Transmission - “Strengthens signals going out”

A SoundTrackerTM CB strengthens the transmit signal by more effectively using the available RFpower output of the CB. The result is improvedtransmission signal clarity and an expanded transmission range.

Note

SoundTracker™ gives you clearer, cleaner reception toimprove CB communicationswhile on the air.
