ANTENNA CONNECTIONS

Each antenna should be connected to the designated terminal(s) correctly, referring to the following diagram.

Both AM and FM indoor antennas are supplied to this unit. In general, these antennas will provide sufficient signal strength. Nevertheless, a properly installed outdoor antenna will give clearer reception than an indoor one. If you experience poor reception quality, an outdoor antenna may result in improvement.

Orient so that the best reception is obtained.

*The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The antenna may be hung on a wall.

*The AM loop antenna should be kept connected, even if an outdoor AM antenna is connected to this unit.

GND terminal

For maximum safety and minimum interference, connect the GND terminal to a good earth ground, which is a metal stake driven into moist earth.

Notes

When connecting the indoor FM antenna, insert its connector into the FM ANT

terminal firmly.

If you need an outdoor

FM antenna to improve FM reception quality, either

300-ohm feeder or coaxial cable may be used. In locations troubled by electrical interference, a coaxial cable is preferable.
