Setting Up Your Scanner
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.
• 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 included 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.
Using Internal Batteries

rechargeable AA batteries (not supplied).
Using Non-Rechargeable Batteries

rechargeable batteries, use a pointed object
such as a ballpoint pen to set REG. ALK. BATT./
NI-MH BATT. inside the compartment to REG.
