Connecting the FM and AM Antennas
FM Antenna Connections
Notes:
• Make sure the antenna
conductors do not touch any
other terminals, connecting
cords and power cord. This
could cause poor reception.
• If reception is poor, connect
an outdoor single vinyl-
covered wire to the AM EXT
terminal. (Keep the AM loop
antenna connected.)
Note:
If reception is poor, connect the
outside antenna.
Before attaching a 75
Ω
coaxial
cable (the kind with a round wire
going to an outside antenna),
disconnect the supplied FM wire
antenna.

AM Antenna Connections
AM Loop Antenna
Turn the loop until you
have the best reception.
Snap the tabs on the loop
into the slots of the base to
assemble the AM loop.
How to strip the 75
Ω
coaxial cable and connect it to the FM
terminals
1. Strip back the outside covering of the 75
Ω
coaxial cable to expose the braided
metallic mesh about 13/16 inches (20 mm).
2. Pull the mesh back and twist it into a single connector as shown in the illustration
above.
3. Strip the insulation about 7/16 inches (10 mm) back from the central wire.
4. Insert the twisted mesh and the central wire to the FM terminals, as shown in the
illustration above.
