About power supply
Lightning
Any person is not safe outdoor during thunderstorm and lightning. This condition is getting worse if somebody keeps a hand-held radio; chances of being hit by lightning are doubled since lightning may hit a radio antenna as well. At this time, there is no hand-held radio having any kind of protection against lightning current (which is higher than 10 kA.). Note also that no car provides adequate protection of its passengers or drivers against lightning as well. Therefore, Alinco will not take responsibility for any danger associated with using its hand-held radios outdoor or inside the car during lightning.
Notice to California resident users
The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 of the State of California determines that lead and cadmium are considered carcinogens and reproductive toxicants. The product that comes with this manual is free from dangerous materials such as lead and cadmium as per RoHS order of EU.
Limited Power Source
Please note that the receiver enclosure only provides mechanical protection of its internal parts; it will not contain a fi re within the device if the fi re starts under certain fault conditions. Alinco will not take responsibility for any fi re hazard associated with powering the receiver or charging its batteries using a power source which does not belong to the limited power sources in the meaning of EN 60950-1. Excluded from possible use with the receiver are most car cigarette lighters and some DC (AC/DC) power supplies. Make sure that the power supply used with the receiver is a limited power source.
Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe off dirt and condensation from the surface of the product. Never use thinner or benzene for cleaning.
Use only reliable power supply of specifi c DC output range and be mindful of the polarity of the cable and DC-jack.
Always turn off the power supply when connecting or disconnecting the cables.
When using an external antenna, make sure that the antenna ground is not common with the ground of the power supply.
European users: When a unit is powered from an external DC power source (adapter, power supply, cigar-plug etc.), make sure that this power supply has approval to the level of IEC/EN 60950-1.

1. Features
1.
The DJ-X11 is a multifunctional receiver which receives a wide range of radio signals from low-frequency (LF) signals to ultra-high-frequency (UHF) signals. It provides the following features:
Features
Receives a wide range of frequencies - between 0.05 and 1299.99995
1
MHz - including aviation radio and business communication frequencies.
Dual-frequency simultaneous reception for receiving signals with main and
2
sub bands simultaneously. (The frequencies which can be received with the sub band are limited.)
Various reception modes supported including SSB/CW as well as FM/
3
WFM/AM. The DJ-X11 can receive not only AM/FM radio signals and analog TV sounds, but also SSB mode signals which are used for amateur band Morse code and ship/aviation radios.
F Tuning function which quickly tunes to the very strong RF signal and
4
receives it, if such signal may exist.
Built-in bar-antenna receives AM radio , eliminating the need to attach an
5
external antenna.
Earphone cord can be used as an antenna to receive FM broadcast and
6
other stronger signals without using an external antenna.
Automatic input switching. By connecting the optional remote controller to
7
the earphone jack and connecting an MP3 player or other portable audio device to the controller, you can listen to music under normal conditions and hear receiver messages when the DJ-X11 receives any signals.
Bug Detector function in two modes. This function notifies you of the
8
possible presence of a bugging device (wireless microphone) with a display, an alarm and a voice announcement.
Clone function for copying settings and various data between the receiver
9
units. It is also possible to connect the receiver to a personal computer to edit settings and data.
Tone Squelch and DCS, cut off shrill and rattling noises so that only the
10
target sound can be heard.
Scan speed is selectable from 3 levels. Select a fast scan speed to detect
11
strong signals, and select a slower scan speed to detect weak signals.
Voice Guidance function which announces the result of key operations or
12
the Bug Detector function in English.

• The battery pack is not fully charged when shipped. You need to
CAUTION
charge it after purchase before use.
• The battery pack must be charged within the temperature range of 0 to 40°C.
• Do not modify or dismantle the battery pack and do not throw it into fi re or water. These actions are dangerous.
• Do not short-circuit the battery pack terminals. This may damage the equipment, or may cause burns by the heat generated from the battery. Do not charge the battery pack for an unnecessarily long time (over­charging). This may deteriorate battery performance.
• The battery pack should be stored in a dry place where the tempera­ture range is between -10°C and +45°C. Storing the battery pack in locations with high humidity or temperatures outside the proper range may cause the battery solution to leak or the metal sections to rust.
• The battery pack is a consumable article. When the battery pack be­comes exhausted extremely quickly even when it has been charged for the specifi ed time, it may have reached the end of its life. In such a case, replace the battery pack with a new one.
• The battery pack is a recyclable resource. Do not dispose the battery pack but take it to a battery recycling center in your area. The battery pack is dedicated for use in Alinco products. It can be charged only us­ing the applicable genuine charger or conforming receiver. Charging it with commercially-available or third-party chargers or adapters may cause a breakage or accident. Clean the electrodes of the battery pack and charger with a dry cotton swab from time to time.
• Even if you do not use the battery pack for a long time, charge it at least once every three months to prevent deterioration.
• The supplied battery pack is dedicated for use in the DJ-X11. Charging it with chargers or adapters other than specifi ed models may cause a breakage or accident.
