Installation Of A Midland 1001z Twoway Cb Radio

The Midland 10001Z Citizen's Band radio is a 4-watt, 2-way radio designed to be mounted in cars or trucks. The radio features a digital display, 40 channels and a compact design that limits the amount of space it takes up in your vehicle. CB radios such as the Midland 1001Z are built to be installed by the end-user, so you should not encounter any particular difficulties in installing the radio in your vehicle.








Instructions


1. Hold the included mounting bracket against the bottom of dash or other mounting location that you've picked for the radio. With a pencil, mark the location of where the mounting holes on the bracket line up with the dash.


2. Drill a 1/8-inch hole at each pencil mark. Place the bracket and attach it to the dash with the sheet metal screws included with the radio.


3. Crimp a fuse tap onto the end of the red wire attached to the radio. Insert the fuse tap into an open slot on the fuse box of your vehicle. Drill a small hole in the metal chassis of your vehicle. Screw the tab on the end of the black wire onto the chassis with the included screw.








4. Plug the end of your antenna cable into the antenna jack on the back of the radio.


5. Slide the radio into the bracket you mounted. The radio is now ready for use.
