the exact desired location. f there is no inter-
ference, remove the bracket and use it as a
template to mark the location for the mount-
ing screws.
Location
Plan location of transceiver and microphone
bracket before starting the installation.
Select a location that is convenient for operation,
yet does not interfere with the driver or passenger.
The transceiver is usually mounted to the under-
side of the dash with the microphone bracket
beside it.

The transceiver is held in the
universal mounting bracket by
two thumbscrews which allow
for adjustment at a convenient
angle.
The bracket includes two self-
tapping screws and star wash-
ers. The mounting must be
