Setting Up the Scanner

Connect the Antenna

1.Align the slots around the antenna’s connector with the tabs on the scanner’s BNC connector.

2.Slide the antenna’s connector down over the scanner’s connector.

3.Rotate the antenna connector’s outer ring clockwise until it locks into place.

The scanner’s BNC connector makes it easy to connect a variety of optional antennas, including an external mobile antenna or outdoor base station antenna.

Note: Always use 50-ohm, RG-58, or RG-8, coaxial cable to connect an outdoor antenna. If the antenna is over 50 feet from the scanner, use RG-8 low-loss dielectric coaxial cable. If it is less than 50 feet, use RG-58. You can get a BNC adapter at local electronics stores.
