CB Antenna
Only a properly matched antenna system will
allow maximum power output.
In mobile installations (cars, trucks, boats, etc.),
an antenna system that is non-directional should
be used.
When installed in a boat, the transceiver will not
operate at maximum efficiency without a ground
plate unless the vessel has a steel hull. Before
installing the transceiver in a boat, consult your
dealer for information regarding an adequate
grounding system.

Cobra loaded-type antenna
models HGA 1000,HGA 1500,
and HGA 2000 are highly rec-
ommended for most installa-
tions. Consult your Cobra deal-
er for further details (or see
order form at the back of
this book).
3-Way Combination Antennas
are available which allow oper-
ation of all three bands (AM-FM
& CB),using a single antenna.
However,use of this type of
antenna usually results in less
than normal transmit and
receive range when compared
to a standard-type "Single
Band" antenna designed for
CB only.
