ANTENNA INFORMATION

• Stubby (3") antennas are ideal for
communication within limited range, and
standard (6") antennas optimize coverage;
the longer the antenna, the better the
coverage is. If you use a stubby antenna for
convenience instead of a standard length
antenna, you can expect approximately a
30% reduction in coverage. When using a
two-way radio outdoors, heavy rain, snow,
buildings or thick forest can dramatically
reduce radio coverage.
