Connecting an Optional Antenna

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 15 metres from the scanner, use RG-8 low- loss dielectric coaxial cable. You can get a BNC adapter at your local electronics store.
