There are two types of antenna: pre-regulated which should be used on a
good ground plane (e.g. car roof or lid of the boot), and adjustable which
offer a much larger range and can be used on a smaller ground plane (see
§ HOW TO ADJUST SWR, below).
-
For an antenna which must be fixed by drilling, you will need a good contact
between the antenna and the ground plane. To obtain this, you should
lightly scratch the surface where the screw and tightening star are to be
placed.
-
Be careful not to pinch or flatten the coaxial cable (as this runs the risk of
break down and/or short-circuiting).
-
Connect the antenna (B).
OUTPUT RADIUS PATTERN
c) Fixed antenna
-
A fixed antenna should be installed in as clear space as possible. If it is fixed
to a mast, it will perhaps be necessary to stay it, according to the laws in
force (you should seek professional advice). All PRESIDENT antennas and
accessories are designed to give maximum efficiency to each CB radio
within the range.
3) POWER CONNECTION
Your PRESIDENT WALKER III FCC is protected against an inversion of polarities.
However, before switching it on, you are advised to check all the connec-
tions. Your equipment must be supplied with a continued current of 12 volts
(A). Today, most cars and lorries are negative earth. You can check this by
making sure that the negative terminal of the battery is connected either to
the engine block or to the chassis. If this is not the case, you should consult
your dealer.
WARNING: Trucks generally have two batteries and an electrical installation
of 24 volts, in which case it will be necessary to insert a 24/12 volt converter
(type CV 24/12 PRESIDENT) into the electrical circuit. The following connec-
tion steps should be carried out with the power cable disconnected from
the set.
a) Check that the battery is of 12 volts.
b) Locate the positive and negative terminals of the battery (+ is red and - is
black). Should it be necessary to lengthen the power cable, you should
use the same or a superior type of cable.
c) It is necessary to connect your transceiver to a permanent (+) and (-).
We advise you to connect the power cable directly to the battery (as the
connection of the transceiver cable to the wiring of the car-radio or other
parts of the electrical circuit may, in some cases, increase the likelihood of
interference).
d) Connect the red wire (+) to
the positive terminal of the
battery and the black (-) wire
to the negative terminal of the
battery.
e) Connect the power cable to
your CB radio.
WARNING: Never replace the
original fuse by one of a differ-
ent value.
4) BASIC OPERATIONS TO BE CARRIED OUT BEFORE USING YOUR
SET FOR THE FIRST TIME (without transmitting and without
using the "push-to-talk" switch on the microphone)
a) Connect the microphone.
b) Check the antenna connections.
c) Turn the set on by turning the VOLUME knob (1) clockwise.
d) Turn the SQUELCH knob (2) to minimum M.
e) Adjust the volume to a comfortable level.
f)
Go to channel 20 by using rotary PUSH knob (6) or UP/DN buttons (18) on
the microphone.
5) HOW TO ADJUST SWR (Standing Wave Ratio)
Warning: This must be carried out when you use your radio for the first time
and whenever you re-position your antenna. This adjustment must be car-
ried out in an obstacle-free area.
