WARNING: Do not let paint solvents, cleaning solvents, or adhesive caulking come in contact with antenna. To clean antenna, use mild dishwashing liquid (one that is not harsh to the hands and without ammonia) in lukewarm water. This antenna works equally well on fiberglass, wood, or metal boats. Included cable can be lengthened using suitable connectors and 50-ohm RG-58 or RG-8 coax (each sold separately), without detrimental effect to antenna performance. Drill a 3/4 inch hole for passage of the cable and connector, and seal the hole with the included rubber grommet.Īny excess cable should be rolled in a coil of at least 8 inch diameter and stowed in an out-of-the-way place, away from other electrical cabling. Route the cable to your CB radio, keeping it as far as possible from other electrical equipment and cables.Follow the instructions included with the mount you choose. Mount the antenna using a Deck Mount (sold separately) or similar mount. IMPORTANT: DO NOT CUT THE CABLE OR REMOVE THE CONNECTOR.
#Cb antenna booster free
Note: Antenna will read shorted on continuity test - disregard.Ĭhoose a mounting location that is as high as possible, as free as possible from obstructions, and as far as possible from other antennas and strong sources of RF, but within reach of the antenna's coax cable.
#Cb antenna booster manual
Unlike a ham radio manual, the GMRS manual does not include the mic pinout info. You could certainly connect the radios to use one mic, pic out for the CB is easily found.pinout for the GMRS radio not so much.


Is it worth the price to experiment with? That's your call, but sometimes to get what you want you have to experiment with.and sometimes it doesn't work. Would it work well if it could tune to those frequencies? Probably not on CB but would work fine for GMRS. Is it widebanded enough to tune the adjacent frequencies that you need? I don't know. 10m is close to CB, and 70cm is close to GMRS. There is an antenna that might work for both radios, it's a 4 band antenna that covers 10m/6m/2m/70cm. Just to muddy the waters just a little bit.
