CONNECTING ANTENNAS

ENGLISH FRANÇAIS DEUTSCH NEDERLANDS ESPAÑOL ITALIANO PORTUGUÊS SVENSKA

Lead-type FM Antenna (75) provided

Outdoor FM

Antenna (75)

Matching Transformer (optional)

AM Loop Antenna (provided)

FM INDOOR ANTENNA

In an area with strong FM signals, the “T”-type FM antenna provided is sufficient.

Extend this into a “T” shape and connect the two wires at the base of the “T” to the provided matching transformer, as shown. After completing connection, plug the transformer into the “FM 75“ socket. Extend the top of the “T” and fix with thumb tacks, or the like, to a wall or window frame for the best possible reception.

FM OUTDOOR ANTENNA

In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to use a 75-ohm unbalanced-type outdoor FM antenna. Generally, a 3- element antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more elements. Connect the coaxial cable of the antenna to the matching transformer as shown. After completing connection, plug the transformer into the “FM 75“ socket.

HOW TO CONNECT A COAXIAL CABLE TO THE MATCHING TRANSFORMER

1Strip the cable and dress it as shown.

2Press both side tabs outward to remove the cover.

3Wrap the core conductor around the central metal fixture as shown. Crimp the jagged metal fixtures so they hold the braided portion using pliers, etc. Put the cover back in place.

jagged metal

Insert into slit.

AM INDOOR LOOP ANTENNA

The high-performance AM loop antenna provided with the receiver is sufficient for good reception in most areas. Connect the loop antenna’s wires to the AM antenna terminals as shown.

Place the antenna on a shelf, for example, or hang it on a window frame, etc., in the direction which gives the best reception, as far away as possible from the entire system, speaker cords and the power cord, to prevent unwanted noise.

AM OUTDOOR ANTENNA

If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver sufficient reception (because you are too far from the transmitter or in a concrete building, etc.), it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM antenna. Use an insulated wire more than 15 ft (5 m) long, strip one end, and connect this to the terminal as shown.

The antenna wire should be strung outdoors or indoors near a window. For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable ground.

NOTE

Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not disconnect the AM loop antenna.
