Congratulations
Your new Top Gun Quad-5 all mode 10 Meter Transceiver is engineered to provide you with top performance and
features of radios costing much more. The QUAD-5 can only bring you all this using SMT technology which guarantees
the best stability, reliability ,unprecedented quality and the latest up to date technology components. Your new All Mode
multi-functional QUAD-5 radio is a new step in personal communications providing features not found in radios costing
much more. Although many programable features are accessed through the front panel, we provide the computer to
radio programming cable for advanced programming ability. To ensure you get the most benefit from this radio, please
carefully read this manual before installing and using your QUAD-5 radio.

member to route wires and cables (e.g.: power, antenna,
accessory cabling) so that they do not in any
way interfere with the
driving of vehicles.
d)
To install your equipment, use the supplied bracket (1) and the
self-tapping
screws [2] provided (drilling diameter 5
mm). Take
care not to damage the vehicle’s electrical system while
drilling the dash board.

ADJUSTMENT OF SWR (Standing Wave
Ratio)
5.
WARNING:
This must be carried out when you use your radio for
the first time (and whenever you re-position your antenna). The
adjustment must be carried out in an obstacle-free area.
Adjustment with an external SWR meter
a)
To connect the SWR meter
Connect the SWR meter between the radio and the antenna as
close as possible to
the radio (use a maximum of 18" cable).
b)To adjust the SWR meter
-Set the radio to channel 20@D band in FM.
-put the switch on the SWR meter to position CAL or FWD.
-Press the <<Push-To-Talk>> switch on the microphone to
transmit.
Bring the needle to the mark by using the calibration key.
-
Change the
switch
to position SWR (reading of the SWR level).
The reading
on the
meter
should be as near as possible to 1. If
this is not the case, re-adjust your antenna to obtain a reading
as close as possible
to 1.( An SWR reading between 1 and 1.8 is
acceptable
, 1.5 or lower is most desirable
).
-It will be necessary to re-calibrate the SWR meter after each
adjustment of the antenna.
HOW TO USE INTERNAL SWR METER
6.
a)Connect the microphone
b)Check the antenna connections
c)Turn the set on by turning the volume knob clockwise
d)Turn the squelch knob to minimum
e) Adjust the volume to a comfortable level
f)Go to channel 20@D band by using either the UP or DN key on
the microphone or the rotary knob.
