Abstract

Abstract An anti-theft and mounting assembly is employed to attach a CB radio receiver and transmitter onto the instrument cowl of a vehicle. The radio casing is secured to the side members of a U-shaped frame that also includes a bottom plate used to support an outwardly projecting lug carrying a key-operated lock. A rectangularly-shaped housing receives and supports the U-shaped frame together with the casing of the CB radio. A lock box on the bottom wall of the housing is totally enclosed by the lug and a stop plate in the box cooperates with the lock mechanism to interconnect the U-shaped frame and the housing while at the same time the lock permits authorized removal of the CB radio should the vehicle remain unattended for long periods of time.
