Installing the BC244CLT
1. Insert small plug at the end of the AC Adapter cord into the AC 12V jack on the
scanner.
2. Plug the AC Adapter into any standard 120VAC wall outlet. Do not plug into an
outlet controlled by a wall switch; it could cause clock reset.
3. Plug the Telescoping Antenna into the ANT. jack. Extend the antenna to its full
height. For UHF frequencies, shortening the antenna may improve the reception.
4. Plug an optional external speaker (8-ohm) into the EXT. SP. jack.
If you are operating the scanner in the fringe area or need to improve reception, use
an optional antenna designed for multi-band coverage. (You can purchase this type
of antenna at a local electronics store.) If the optional antenna has no cable, use 50-
70 ohm coaxial cable for lead-in. A mating plug may be necessary for the optional
antennas.
If your scanner receives strong interference or electrical noise, relocate the scanner
or its antenna away from the source.
