4.9 Connecting an antenna
The radio must be connected to a suitable antenna
(not supplied). The antenna connection must be
protected so it cannot come into contact with any
bare metal (which may be grounded). A protective
boot is supplied that can be used to ensure isolation
of the antenna connection.
