NSTALLATION
The supplied antenna provides good results over the entire frequency range
of the transceiver. However, for enhanced base station medium-wave and
shortwave reception, you may wish to connect an external (outside) an-
tenna, as the supplied antenna is very small and cannot be expected to
provide high performance at these frequencies.
To install the supplied antenna, hold the bottom end of the antenna and
screw it onto the mating connector on the transceiver until it is snug. Do
not over-tighten or use extreme force.
Notes:
When installing the supplied antenna, never hold the upper part of the
antenna while screwing it onto the mating connector on the transceiver.
