The MC-4
Mobile Console completes the transceiver installation.
It combines a speaker/baffle system designed for maximum speech intelligibility with a
precision wattmeter which reads forward and reverse power. The self-contained
Ceramic
speaker eliminates the need to splice and match into the car radio speaker.
The wattmeter not only takes the guesswork out of tuning antenna whips, but also
provides a continuous visual check on antenna and feed line system performance. It can be
used to prevent frequency excursions into a high SWR region.
As shown above, the mounting flexibility of the MC-4 allows its use in any mobile
installation. It can be used with the TR-3, TR-4 or TR-6. When transferred to the home
station, the console makes a neat and compact package.
