MOUNTING THE

501 as a base station, you can place
it on a desk, shelf, or table (see “Us-
ing the CB as a Base Station” on
Page 8).
If you are mounting the CB in a vehi-
cle, choose a location where:
You can easily reach the CB.
Wires and cables will not inter-
fere with the vehicle’s pedals or
other moving parts.
The CB is not directly in front of
heating vents.
All wires and cables will reach
their connection points.
Caution:
If you use the TRC-501 in a
vehicle, mount it securely to avoid
damage to the CB or vehicle during
sudden starts or stops.
