CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL ANTENNA

Your System 741 has two built-in an- tennas. The AM antenna is internal, and the power cord serves as the FM antenna.

For improved reception, you can at- tach an external FM or VHF TV anten- na (not supplied) to the 75-ohm or 300-ohm terminals on the back of the system.

Note: If you use an outside VHF TV antenna, you can use a signal splitter to connect your radio and TV to the same antenna.

Your local RadioShack store has a wide selection of antennas, splitters, and connectors.

CONNECTING POWER

After making all other connections, plug your system’s AC power cord into a standard AC outlet.

Caution: Your system’s power cord has a polarized plug (one blade is wid- er than the other). If you have difficulty inserting the plug into the outlet, do not force it. Turn the plug over and try again.

Note: If you are not connecting an ex- ternal antenna, make sure the sys- tem’s power cord is fully extended.
