Connecting the aerials

The AKURATE Tuner is supplied with indoor aerials, however better reception will be obtained by using external aerials mounted on a roof. The supplied F-type adapter is for connection to the FM AERIAL input, if required. For DAB, use a dipole antenna, or in areas of poor reception a Yagi-type antenna. In either case, the antenna should be connected to the AKURATE Tuner using 75 Ω coaxial cable. For further advice on external DAB, FM or AM aerials please contact your Linn retailer.

FM and AM aerials

Connect the supplied FM and AM aerials as shown.

DAB aerial

For best reception attach the aerial to a wall as high as the length of wire will allow. Attach the arms of the aerial to the wall vertically, as shown.

FM aerial

The end of the FM aerial should be connected to a wall as high as the length of the aerial will allow. You may have to experiment with its positioning to obtain the best reception.

AM aerial

For best reception, position the AM aerial away from the AKURATE Tuner and sources of radio frequency emissions (e.g. television, computer). As with the FM aerial, you may have to experiment with its position to achieve the best reception. For some stations you may obtain better reception by rotating the aerial.
