Your new receiver comes with an AM loop antenna for AM
radio reception. To connect the AM antenna:
1. Insert the antenna loop into the base and position the
loop.
2. Open the receiver’s antenna terminal levers.
3. Insert the antenna’s wires into the terminal as shown
above.
4. Close the antenna terminal levers to lock the wires in
place.
5. Adjust the antenna loop as necessary to improve recep-
tion.
To prevent hum interference, keep the AM antenna wires
away from speaker wires, AC power cords, the TV chassis,
and the receiver.
FM Indoor Antenna
Your new receiver also comes with an FM indoor antenna
for FM radio reception. To connect the FM antenna:
1. Attach the antenna sheath to the pole in the center of
the receiver’s FM antenna jack, as shown above. When
you attach the sheath for the first time, you may need to
exert quite a bit of pressure.
2. Adjust the antenna as necessary to improve reception.
3. Tack the looped end of the antenna in the location that
provides the best reception.
