Connecting Antennas

This section explains how to connect the indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect com- mercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.

*An indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna are sup- plied with each tuner board.

Insert the plug fully into the jack.

Once the TUN-3.7 is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the posi- tion of the FM antenna to achieve the best possi- ble reception.

2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the FM antenna into position.

Thumbtacks, etc.

Caution: Be careful that you don’t injure your- self when using thumbtacks.

If you cannot achieve good reception with the indoor FM antenna, try using a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead.
