Cobra Electronics 18 WX ST ユーザーズマニュアル

To operate your COBRA transceiver from a car on a tempo-
rary basis, you may want to purchase an additional ciga-
rette lighter adapter from your COBRA dealer. This adapter
and a magnetic mount antenna allow you to quickly
"install" your transceiver for temporary use.

Refer to controls, indicators and connectors as illustrated
below:

. Allows for convenient

removal of the microphone plug when storage is
required. The microphone MUST be connected to the
unit at all times when in use, for proper operation.

. Turn clockwise to turn power on and

set the desired listening volume.

. This control is used to cut off or eliminate

receiver background noise in the absence of an incom-
ing signal. For maximum receiver sensitivity, it is
desired that the control be adjusted only to the point
where the receiver background noise or ambient back-
ground noise is eliminated. Adjust until the receiver
noise disappears. This will require the incoming signal
to be slightly stronger than average receiver noise.
Further clockwise rotation will increase the threshold
level which a signal must overcome in order to be
heard. Only strong signals will be heard at a maximum
clockwise setting.

. CB mode is for normal CB opera-

tion. Switch to WX1, or WX2, or WX3 to find the
Weather VHF Radio Station active in your area.

. When depressed, these

buttons are used to select any one of the forty citizens
band channels desired.
For a "RAPID" change of channels, depress and hold the
desired button (up or down). This allows all 40 channels
to be covered in about 6 seconds.

. The selected channel will be dis-

played.

. Shows relative transmitter RF out-

put power and input signal strength when receiving.
The LED (Light Emitting Diode) segments glow green to
amber to red...this indicates receive or transmit activity.

. 4 red indicator will light when in

the receive mode. A green indicator lights when in receive
mode. When weather channel is selected, the channel
display will be turned off.

. A red indicator will illuminate

when the SoundTracker system is engaged on your CB. 

. Depressing this button provides

instant access to emergency Channel 9. Channel 9 on
display will flash to remind you that the function is acti-
vated.

. Depressing this button turns

on the SoundTracker system in your radio.

¥

. This is a non-switchable 

feature that is always "on" to reduce background noise.
