CONNECTING AN ANTENNA
Your walkie-talkie includes an efficient
rubber antenna that is ideal for most ap-
plications. Simply screw the antenna
Into the walkie-talkie's antenna socket.
For mobile or base-station applications,
you might want to connect a more effi-
cient external mobile or outdoor base
antenna to your walkie-talkie's ANTEN-
NA jack. This connection requires a
coaxial plug adapter. Your local Padio
Shack store sells the proper adapter
and a variety of external antennas for
your walkie-talkie.
Warning: When installing or remov-
ing base station CB antennas, use ex-
treme caution. If the antenna starts to
fall, lot it go! lt might contact over-
head power lines. If the antenna is
touching a power line, contact with
the antenna, mast, cable,or guy
wires can cause electrocution and
death! Call the power company to re-
move the antenna. Do not attempt to
remove it yourself.
Caution: Never try to transmit without
an antenna. You might damage the
walkie-talkie.
