Install Manual Part 2

Typical Mobile Antenna Installation
A permanent mount type of antenna should be located in the center
of the roof or center of rear deck.
The Maximum Permissible Exposure limit is a radius of 55
inches (or 138 cm) for roof or rear deck installations per OET
Bulletin 65 of the FCC. This estimate is made assuming the
maximum capable transmit power of the radio and an antenna
with a maximum gain of 3 dBd. A maximum 50% transmit duty
cycle is also assumed, due to the push-to-talk status of this
mobile.

Try to route the cable away from locations where it will be exposed
to heat, sharp edges or mechanical damage, and where it will be out
of the way of the driver, passengers or vehicles mechanics. Wherever
possible, existing holes in the trunk wall, and the channels above or
beneath doors and window columns should be utilized.
Avoid routing the antenna cable near any electronic modules or
along side any vehicle wiring.
Connect the antenna cable to the TNC connector on the radio being
careful not to twist the cable.
