When I am using my radio for programming, setup within my house, experimenting, etc, is there anything special I should do?
With ANY transmitter (modulared or non-modular), you should ALWAYS extend your antenna to at least the bottom or first segment when turning the radio on. If you leave the radio on with the antenna collapsed for more than 5 or 10 minutes, the internal components will be unnecessarily exposed to incorrect matching of the output circuit to the antenna. This may shorten the life or even immediately damage the output circuitry of the transmitter.
