For FM, use either the 75 ohm “F” connector or the 300 ohm “push terminals” depending on what type of antenna you’ve chosen. If you’re getting FM from a cable system feed, you will most likely use the “F” connector. The “T” shaped antenna supplied with the GTP-760 uses the push terminals marked “300 ohms.” “T” antennas are directional. They should be placed as high as possible with the arms fully extended. If possible, the arms should be oriented so that they are at right angles to the transmitter.
