ANTENNA CONNECTIONS

NOTE FOR FM ANTENNA:

Stretch the antenna out to its full length and affix it to a wall, etc.

NOTE FOR AM LOOP ANTENNA:

The antenna should be placed at a distance from the receiver, and should not be allowed to touch metallic objects. Avoid placing it near CD players, personal computers, television sets and other devices generating radio frequencies.

Accessory FM T-type antenna

Stretch the antenna out to its full “T” shape and affix it to a wall, etc.

Setting Up the AM Antenna

÷Insert the claw on the bottom of the antenna into the groove in the leg.

÷Place the antenna on a level surface and rotate it to locate the orientation that yields the best reception.

÷Use the attachment hole in the leg to screw to a wall or other location, then insert the claw on the bottom of the antenna into the groove in the leg (affixing the antenna in the direction that gives the best reception.)

7OUTDOOR FM ANTENNA

The main advantage of FM over AM is the quality of the broadcast signal. In order to benefit fully from the high signal quality of FM broadcasts, it is recommended that a special- purpose FM antenna be installed. In weak signal areas, a multi- element (3-, 5-, or 7-element) antenna should be used.

7GROUNDING

Grounding is recommended if reception of FM programs is impaired by noise. To ground, connect a thick polyvinyl insulated wire to the GND terminal and attach the other end to a metal water pipe or grounding bar or wind it around a copper plate and bury it.

CAUTION:

Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks may ignite the gas.

7EXTERNAL AM ANTENNA

If it is not possible to obtain adequate AM reception even by changing the orientation of the AM loop antenna, a separate indoor antenna, or an outdoor antenna should be installed.

INDOOR AM ANTENNA

Use a vinyl insulated wire (5 — 6 m, 17 — 20 feet), and connect one end to the AM antenna terminal and affix the other end to the wall or ceiling, as high as possible.

OUTDOOR AM ANTENNA

If reception quality is not improved sufficiently even when an indoor antenna is used, a vinyl insulated wire should be installed outside and fixed in place.

NOTE:

Do not detach the AM loop antenna when using an indoor or an outdoor AM antenna.

Twist the wire strands together.
