Notes on Antenna Orientation:

AM

: Orient the AM loop antenna so 

that the flat surface of the loop 
antenna faces the metropolitan area 
originating the broadcast signals. This 
is particularly necessary when signals 
are weak. If you are not aware of the 
source or directions of the signals to 
which you will listen, simply rotate the 
loop antenna in clear space for 
maximum signal strength. The 
supplied antenna has a folding stand 
that allows the antenna to stand on a 
flat surface.

FM

: The recommended FM antenna is 

an outdoor type available in electronics 
stores. Use the included FM antenna if 
an outdoor antenna cannot be used. 
The included antenna may require 
reorientation if the signal is weak. Best 
results can occur if the length of the 
antenna faces the metropolitan area 
from which the desired FM signal 
originates. The supplied antenna has a 
fitting at its end that will enable you to 
fasten it in place.
