Connecting an Optional Antenna
Although the supplied flexible antenna
provides excellent local reception, you
can connect an optional external mobile
antenna or outdoor base station antenna
to your transceiver for better reception of
weak signals. The antenna jack on the
top of the transceiver makes it easy to
use the transceiver with a variety of an-
tennas. Your local RadioShack store
sells a variety of antennas.
Caution: Never connect an antenna that
is not specifically tuned for the transceiv-
er’s frequency range.
Using the Belt Clip
The supplied belt clip lets you easily clip
the transceiver to your belt.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to secure the
clip to the transceiver’s back with the
supplied screws.
Connecting an Earphone/External
Speaker
To listen privately or to hear better in a
large area such as a warehouse, you
can plug a monaural earphone or an
external speaker with a
1
/8-inch (3.5
mm) plug (not supplied) into the EAR
jack on thetop of the transceiver. This
automatically disconnects the built-in
speaker.
