antenna installatiOn
The supplied antenna provides good results
over the entire frequency range of the transceiv-
er. However, for enhanced reception on certain
non-Amateur
frequencies, you may wish to con-
nect an antenna designed specifically for that
frequency
range, as the supplied antenna is
necessarily a compromise outside the Amateur
bands,
and cannotbe expected toprovide high
performance at all frequencies.
T
o install the supplied antenna, hold the bottom end of the antenna, then screw
it onto the mating connector on the transceiver until it is snug. Do not over-tight

Notes:
Never transmit without having an antenna connected.
When installing the supplied antenna, never hold the
upper part of the an-

installatiOn OF sbr-25li battery paCk
The SBR-25LI is a high-performance Li-Ion battery providing high capacity in a
compact package. Under normal use, the SBR-25LI maybe used for approx-
imately
300chargecycles,afterwhichoperatingtimemaybeexpectedtode-
crease. If you have an old battery pack which is displaying capacity which has
become diminished, you should replace the pack with a new one.
Installation of the battery is easy and quick:
Insert the battery pack into the battery compartment on the back of the radio
while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then close the Battery Pack Latch until it
locks in place with a “Click.”
T
o remove the battery, turn the radio off and remove any protective cases.
Open the Battery Pack
Latch on the bottom of
the radio, then slide the
battery downward and
out from the radio while
tilting the Belt Clip out of
the way.
