POWERING THE CB
You can power your TRC-235 from any of
these sources:
• Eight AA alkaline batteries (not sup-
plied) with two dummy batteries
(supplied)
• Te n r e ch a rg e a b le A A n ic k e l-
cadmium batteries (not supplied)
• 12-volt vehicle battery power using a
fused power cord (not supplied)

supply (not supplied)
USING THE POWER JACK
AND ALKALINE/NI-CD
SWITCH
The POWER jack lets you connect an ex-
ternal power source (such as your vehi-
cle’s battery power or AC power) to power
the TRC-235, or connect a battery charg-
er to charge nickel-cadmium batteries
while they are in the TRC-235.
The TRC-235 also has a slide switch ( AL-
KALINE/NI – CD ) inside the battery com-
partment which you must set correctly,
depending on what power source you are
using and whether or not you want to
charge rechargeable batteries while they
are in the TRC-235.
