Connecting antennas

To use the tuner of the TX-SR700/700E/600/600E, it is necessary to prepare the supplied FM and AM antennas.

Adjustment and placement of the FM and AM antennas for better reception must be done while listening to a station broadcast.

If better reception cannot be obtained, then placement of an outside antenna is recommended.

Assembling the AM loop antenna

Assemble the loop antenna as shown in the illustration.

Refer to “Connecting the AM loop antenna” below for details on how to connect the loop antenna.

Insert into the hole.

Connecting the included antennas

Connecting the FM indoor antenna:

The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend the antenna and adjust its orientation until the clearest signal is received. Fix it with push pins or similar items in the position that will cause the least amount of distortion.

If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.

Connecting the AM loop antenna:

The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away as possible from the TX-SR700/700E/600/600E, televisions, speaker cables, and power cords.

If the reception is not very clear with the attached AM indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
