Installation and fitment

- Mount: Confirm that the DRX-3402 mirror-mount arrangement fits your vehicle's mounting surface and provides a suitable ground.
- Coax: Route the 18-foot DRX-1518 cable without sharp bends, pinch points or contact with moving parts.
- SWR: Use the radio's SWR calibration and meter to check the completed antenna installation before transmitting.
The factory microphone is included with the radio. This truck package does not add a DRX-6560 microphone or external speaker. Vehicle-specific brackets, grounding work or other hardware may be needed for your installation; the package is not a universal fit guarantee.
