What is the best way to set up radio to get the performance in your semi- tractor. Also what does the 10hz button do, and what is the modulator button for
Run a 12 Gauge wire to the battery and put a fuse at the battery too. Choose your favorite antenna and coax. You can use the built in SWR meter but it is better to adjust the antenna with a SWR meter. Shorten or lengthen the antenna (Start with making it longer) until your SWR is as low as possible. The 10KC switch allows you to access the R.C. (remote control-from the RC car and airplane days) between ch 4, 7 , 10, 14, 19 and 22 (i think). It's no biggee cause nobody really uses them anyway. The Top Gun Modulator is Magnums version of a swing kit. More audio and a little signal increase. Some radios really see a difference depending on who has adjusted/tuned the radio. Others it is very little. Hope you got lucky cause it is a nice radio.
