around until you get the best reception. For continued use, we strongly recommended using a 75ohm outdoor FM aerial.

AM loop aerial

Connect each end of the single length antenna to the antenna terminals. Place the antenna as far from the main system as possible to prevent unwanted noise and to obtain optimum reception. If the AM loop aerial provided does not receive sufficient reception, it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM aerial.
