Place the TUNER
CONTROL in a
comfortable location
relative to your radio.
Place the ANTENNA
ELEMENT a few feet
away. If the ANTENNA
ELEMENT is placed too
close to the radio, it will
cause noise on your radio.
1. Put the FERRITE STICK on top of the radio near the center. The
position shown in the photo (below) is a good position when the
Twin Coil Ferrite AM Antenna by
C.Crane is used with the CCRadio.
2. For testing purposes, tune your radio
to any weak AM station. It is important
that the station be weak so you can
clearly detect the improvement in
reception.
3. Rotate the FINE TUNE control, it will click on and the red
LED indicator light will come on. Turn the COARSE TUNE control
knob slowly and you will likely notice a change in reception at
some point on the dial. Adjust the control knob until you notice
the most improvement on your signal. Now you can use the FINE
TUNE control for further refinement.
4. Move the FERRITE STICK around the radio to find theposition
that affects the signal the most. This position is the “sweet spot”,
or the best position.
5. Again, adjust the FINE TUNE on the TUNER CONTROL for the
best reception possible.
6. Now you can orientate the ANTENNA ELEMENT for best
reception. In most cases, the ELEMENT does not have to be
adjusted again. When radio noise is a problem, try rotating the
ELEMENT in the direction which reduces noise to a minimum.
