i wired mine having mounted it in dash to feed for stereo, the one that feeds
the memory. found that in ciggy it could work loose and or if stalled then
restarted engine the electronic search would take the rig back to ch.9, now
its always ready, stays on channel and frees up ciggy socket for other stuff.
still on a magmount stinger twig, the cable routes behind dash then under
edge of transmission, under rear mat then sits in boot ready for action...
did wonder if radio would be safe being live if switched on, but found that
theres a safety device in the mike socket so once removed, whilst the
radio turns on, its muted and clearly cant transmit as mike is stored away.
