Installing the Antenna
With your radio turned off, set the antenna in its receptacle and
turn clockwise to attach it to your radio.
To remove the antenna, turn the antenna counterclockwise.
Make sure you turn off your radio first.
Note:
For Flexible Antenna, see
on page 12 for proper
steps to strap it to your body.
Attaching the Accessory Connector
Cover
The accessory connector is located on the antenna side of your
radio. It is used to connect accessories to your radio.
Note:
To prevent damage to the connector, shield it with the
connector cover when not in use.
Insert the hooked end of
the cover into the slot
above the connector.
Press downward on the
cover’s top to seat it in the
slot. Once in place, rotate
the thumbscrew clockwise
by hand until tight.
To remove the accessory
connector cover, rotate the
thumbscrew
counterclockwise until it
disengages from your
radio. If the thumbscrew is
too tight, use an Allen
wrench to loosen it first.
Rotate and lift the connector cover to disengage it from your
