Connecting the AV receiver—Continued

Connecting an Outdoor FM Antenna

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available out- door FM antenna instead.

Connecting an Outdoor AM Antenna

If good reception cannot be achieved using the supplied AM loop antenna, an outdoor AM antenna can be used in addition to the loop antenna, as shown.

Notes:

•Outdoor FM antennas work best outside, but usable results can sometimes be obtained when installed in an attic or loft.

•For best results, install the outdoor FM antenna well away from tall buildings, preferably with a clear line of sight to your local FM transmitter.

•Outdoor antenna should be located away from possi- ble noise sources, such as neon signs, busy roads, etc.

•For safety reasons, outdoor antenna should be situated well away from power lines and other high-voltage equipment.

•Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock haz- ards.

■Using a TV/FM Antenna Splitter

It’s best not to use the same antenna for both FM and TV reception, as this can cause interference problems. If cir- cumstances demand it, use a TV/FM antenna splitter, as shown.

Outdoor AM antennas work best when installed outside horizontally, but good results can sometimes be obtained indoors by mounting horizontally above a window. Note that the AM loop antenna should be left connected.

Outdoor antenna must be grounded in accordance with local regulations to prevent electrical shock hazards.
