Setting Up Your Scanner
These guidelines will help you install and use your
new scanner:
•
If your scanner receives interference or electrical
noise, move the scanner or its antenna away
from the source. You might also try changing the
height or angle of the telescoping antenna.
• To improve the scanner’s reception, use an
optional external 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 might be
necessary for the optional antennas.
• Use an optional mono earphone or mono
headset with proper impedance for private
listening. Read the precautions on the inside
front cover of this Owners Manual.
• Do not use the scanner in high-moisture
environments such as the kitchen or bathroom.
• Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or
near heating elements or vents.

rechargeable AA batteries (not supplied).
