Mounting and
Connection
Mounting and Connection
Hold the radio with the mounting bracket in
the exact desired location. If 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.
Note
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
mechanically strong, conve-
niently located.
continued
Drill the holes and secure the bracket.

1
Connect the antenna cable plug to the recep-
tacle marked ANT on the back of the unit.
3
Note
Before installing the CB radio,
visually check the vehicle’s bat-
tery connection to determine
which terminal, positive or
negative, is grounded (positive
is the larger of the two) to the
engine block (or chassis). A
negatively grounded vehicle
has its negative lead grounded
to the chassis.
Note
In positive ground vehicles the
red wire goes to the chassis and
the black wire is connected to
the ignition switch.
Installation

Note
Connecting to an accessory fuse
prevents the unit from being left
on accidentally, and also per-
mits operating the unit without
running the engine.
Note
In positive ground vehicles the
red wire goes to the chassis and
the black wire is connected to
the ignition switch.
In a negative grounded vehicle, connect the
red lead of the DC power cord to an accessory
12 volt fuse.
Connect the black lead to the negative side of
the vehicle. This is usually the chassis. Any con-
venient location with a good electrical contact
(remove paint) may be used.

5
Plug power cable into back of unit marked
“Power”. Be sure to observe polarity markings.
Mount the microphone
bracket on the right side
of the unit (driver’s left)
using two screws sup-
plied. Bracket should be
placed under the dash
so microphone is readily
accessible.

8Attach the 4-pin microphone cable to
receptacle on the front of the unit and
install unit in bracket securely.
Ignition Noise Interference
Antennas
Use of a mobile receiver at low signal levels is
normally limited by the presence of electrical
noise. The primary source of noise in automobiles
is from the alternator and ignition system.
Typically, when signal level is adequate, the back-
ground noise does not present a serious problem.
Also, when extremely low level signals are being
received, the transceiver may be operated with
the vehicle’s engine turned off. The unit requires
very little current and therefore will not signifi-
cantly discharge the vehicle’s battery.
Even though the Cobra 25 LTD Classic has an
automatic noise limiter, in some installations igni-
tion interference may be high enough to make
good communications impossible. Many possibil-
ities exist and variations between vehicles require
different solutions. Consult your COBRA dealer or
a 2-way radio technician for help in locating the
source of a severe noise.
CB Antenna
Since the maximum allowable power output of
the transmitter is limited by the FCC, the antenna
is critical in affecting transmission distance. Only
a properly matched antenna system will allow
maximum power output. Cobra loaded type
antenna models are highly recommended for
most installations. Consult your Cobra dealer for
further details, or call 773.889.3087 and speak to
a Cobra representative.
Marine Installation
The transceiver will not operate at maximum effi-
ciency in a boat without a ground plate, (unless it
has a steel hull). Before attempting installation ,
consult your dealer for information regarding an
adequate grounding system and prevention of
electrolysis between fittings in the hull and water.
CB Antenna
7
Note
For optimum performance in
passenger cars the ideal anten-
na location is on the center of
the roof. Second choice is on the
center of the trunk.
Note
Because many newer trucks
feature fiberglass door skins,
the outside mirror must be
grounded to the chassis..
Note
3-way Combination Antennas
are also available which allow
operation of all three bands
(AM-FM & CB), using a single
antenna. However, this type of
antenna usually results in less
than normal transmit and
receive range when compared
to a standard-type “Single
Band” CB antenna. Call
773.889.3087 for further infor-
mation.

1A standard antenna connector is provided
on the transceiver for easy connection.
The CB/PA button should be in the
CB position.

Turn counterclockwise to reduce
gain.
Note
The RF noise blanker is very
effective in reducing repetitive
noises such as ignition interfer-
ence.
Switch to BRT or DIM to control brightness
of the channel indicator and multi-function
meter for day or nighttime driving.
Rotate the RF Gain knob counterclockwise
to reduce gain in strong signal areas. In weak
signal areas turn clockwise to increase gain.

Full clockwise rotation closes the gate
allowing only very strong signals to enter.
Full counterclockwise rotation opens the

To achieve the Desired Squelch Setting (DSS),
turn the Squelch control counterclockwise
until you hear noise. Now turn the control
clockwise just until the noise stops. This is the
DSS setting.
