Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.

Notes:

•Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

•For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away for tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

•Outdoor antenna should be located away from possible noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

•For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

•Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local reg- ulations to prevent electrical shock hazards. See item 14 of the “Important Safeguards” on page 2 of this manual.

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside hor- izontally, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards. See item 14 of the “Important Safeguards” on page 2 of this manual.

Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If circum- stances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.
