ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT
◊
Antenna
Insert the supplied antenna into the an-
tenna connector and screw down the an-
tenna as shown at right.
Keep the jack cover attached when jack
is not in use to avoid bad contacts from
dust and moisture.
Commercially available antennas (BNC)
may increase receiver performance.
