USING THE ANTENNA
For the best reception at all times,
lift up the Weatheradio’s built-in
telescoping antenna so it is verti-
cal, then fully extend it.
Connecting an External Antenna
To improve reception (in remote areas, for example),
you can connect an external antenna using an adapt-
er cable (RadioShack Unlimited Cat. No. 11806437,
not supplied) with a phono plug to the Weatheradio’s
EXT
ANT
jack. Your local RadioShack store sells a
wide variety of antennas.
To connect an external antenna to the Weatheradio,
connect one end of the adapter cable to
EXT
ANT
on
the Weatheradio and connect the other end to the
phono plug on the antenna. Then lower the Weath-
eradio’s telescoping antenna.
