on the tab; release to secure.

 

4

Place the AM antenna on a flat surface and point in the direction

 

 

giving the best reception.

 

 

Avoid placing near computers, television sets or other electrical appliances (including the

 

 

 

 

display unit of this system), and do not let it come into contact with metal objects.

 

 

Note: The signal ground (H) is designed to reduce noise that occurs when an antenna

 

 

is connected. It is not an electrical safety ground.

 

FM wire antenna

1Connect the FM wire antenna in the same way as the AM antenna.

For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave it coiled up. The supplied FM antenna is a simple means of receiving FM stations; using a dedicated, outdoor FM antenna will usually give you better reception and sound quality. See below for connection details.

Connecting external antennas

If you find reception quality is poor with the supplied indoor antennas, try connecting outdoor antennas (not supplied).

External AM antenna

Use 15 to 18 feet (5–6 meters) of vinyl-insulated wire and set up either indoors or outdoors. Leave the AM loop antenna connected.
