If desired, the FA205 can be screw-mounted to a fixed surface.
Drill through-holes (.200" max diameter) in the back housing
cover in locations indicated.
Wood screws used to mount the transmitter should be size #8 or
smaller.
Screw head height must be less than .150". Larger screw heads
may cause short-circuits on the unit.
Converting from belt clip to belt loop
