Helpful Hints

• If strong interference or electrical noise is received, relocate

the scanner or its antenna away from the source.

• If you are operating the scanner in a fringe area or need to

improve reception, use an optional antenna designed for
multi-band coverage. (You can purchase this type of antenna
at a local electronics store.)

• If the optional antenna has no cable, use 50-70 ohm coaxial

cable for lead-in. A mating plug may be necessary for the
optional antennas.
