Antenna Installation and Removal

Before installing the antenna, ensure that the match between your radio and antenna is correct. Your radio’s model number is on a label attached to the back of your radio. A typical model number might be H09UCC9PW5AN. The fourth position of the model number (in this example “U”) identifies the operating-frequency band of the radio. The following table lists all fourth­position alpha characters and corresponding frequency band.
