We do not expect you to have any problems with your CB, but if you do, the
following suggestions might help.

Symptom                                     Suggestion

You experience trouble receiving.           Make sure POWER is set to on.
    
                                            Make sure SQUELCH is adjusted
                                            properly.

                                            Make sure the microphone is
                                            securely connected.

                                            Check for a good antenna 
                                            connection.

                                            Make sure the CB is set to an
                                            operating channel.

You experience trouble transmitting.        Make sure the antenna cable is
                                            securely connected to the
                                            antenna connector.

                                            Make sure the antenna is fully
                                            extended.

                                            Make sure all connections are
                                            secure and free of corrosion.

                                            Make sure ALERT/WX/CB is set
                                            to CB.

The CB is completely inoperative.           Check the DC power cord and 
                                            in-line fuse.

                                            Replace the fuse.  See "Care
                                            and Maintenance," Faxback Doc.
                                            # 38424.

If these tips do not solve the problem, do not attempt repairs or 
adjustments yourself.  The CB should be serviced only by a qualified radio
technician.  If you still have problems, take your CB to your local
RadioShack for assistance.
