Does the radio have a 12v plug or does it need to be wired up?

The unit does not have a 12v plug. It has two wires approx 18 inches long with stripped ends so that it can be wired into the vehicle's power.

No it does not come with A 12V plug. you have to either wire it permanently to the battery or if you want it to be portable than buy the plug and use the cigarette lighter socket in your Car.

This radio has a standard bare wire that has 2 parts. 1 for positive (or hot wire) that has a fuse attached. the other for negative (or ground). You can wire them to the battery. What I did is connect the wires to a cigarette lighter adapter & it worked out just fine. I hope this helps.

Doesn't have a 12V plug but the best method is to connect directly to the battery as that provides the best power and lowest ignition noise. The cigarette lighter socket is a lower rated outlet and while this radio doesn't pull that much amperage it could overload it.

It needs to be wired up. It is designed to be connected directly to the battery but ypu could wire a cigarette lighter adapter to it.

Yes it must be plugged in. There's not a battery. Nice little receiver I like it very mutch. Works well on a large system.

It has a 12v input on the rear of the unit but as far as what it powers I don't know. The is the second switch box from this brand we have had and until one part of the unit failed we were happy with it (we think heat from the sun shining on the non-insulated electronics bay was the source of the problem). We never did use the motorhome's antenna so I can't answer much more than that.

it is hard wired to a 12 volt source. I installed it in my truck bed cover and used a switch to turn off and on. The switch i found at Radio Shack.

This unit does not come with a 12 volt (cigarette lighter style) plug. It basically has a small set of jumper cables that clamp directly to the battery.

It needs a 12 volt power source. It was pretty easy to just hook into a 12 volt wire in my 2004 suburban.

The manual has a picture of it---it's a two-prong polarized AC piug. This is not a battery-powered radio. The battery is only for backing up the alarm setting if there is a temporary power failure.

If you mean does the antenna plug into the CB yes it does not need a wire. if you are referring to the CB you need to get power to the CB that required a plug.

You will need to install the radio and buy a battery and charger. Everything else comes pre-installed

Did you connect the powered transmitter that plugs into the (wired) remote cable on the back of the radio. It appears the wireless transmitter has its own powered receiver which plugs into the existing connector for the wired remote (on the back of the radio) and if I remember correctly it was powered(12V). There was no link or pairing to perform it simply worked.

Has both AM and FM bands. Runs on D batteries x 8 (not included) or 120V with included cord.

the radio comes with an ac/dc adapter - just plug it in the back. jack is under the rubber cover

This radio was not designed with a AC or DC adaptor. But in order to accomplish this change over you would have to d take a 12V battery pack and remove the batteries or disable the pack and connect your Positive & Negative up to the pack. Use a volt meter to test and locate the positive terminal on the battery if it is not already identified. Most of all check the voltage output of your DC supplier first to make sure that the voltage and the amps are constantly within the original radios spec. if not, DON'T MAKE THE CONNECTION!!!!!!! You might destroy a good radio.

Yes you can plug it in like a normal radio. I try to only plug in when it needs charging as I don't want to ruin the battery by leaving it plugged all the time. The item only comes with a USB wire that fits into the speaker so you will need the power part. I use the extras I have from my cell phones.

The unit isn't wireless. It requires being either hard wired to a 12v electrical system in a car, or being plugged into a cigarette lighter, again 12v.

The connector plug to the radio is a two prong "Midland" plug. It is not the standard headphone or RCA style plug.

The radio comes with an AC adapter to run the radio from 110 volts. The adapter cannot charge a battery, it just powers the radio.
