Assembly
Antenna
This device is fitted with a Male SMA connector. To
mount the antenna (Female SMA Connector), align
the two connectors and mm the antenna clockwise until
it stops.
•When installing the antenna, install it by holding the
base and turning.
•If an external antenna is used, ensure that the *SWR*
is about 1.5:1 or less to avoid damage to the transceiver's
transistors.
•Holding the antenna with your hand or wrapping the
outside may cause subpar operation of the transceiver.
• Never transmit from the device without an antenna.
Belt Clip
On the back of the radio, above the battery, there are
two parallel screws. Remove these and align them so
that they go through the holes on the belt clip as they
are screwed back into the radio body to securely affix
the belt clip.
Install the belt clip at the rear of the battery compartment
cover as shown in the figure to the right.
Do not use glue to affix the screws onto the battery
clip. Application of glue may cause damage to the
casing of the battery.
