CONNECTING ANTENNAS
FM INDOOR ANTENNA
In an area with strong FM signals, the “T”-type FM antenna provided is sufficient.
Extend this into a “T” shape and connect the two wires at the base of the “T” to the provided matching
transformer, as shown. After completing connection, plug the transformer into the “FM 75
Ω
“ socket.
Extend the top of the “T” and fix with thumb tacks, or the like, to a wall or window frame for the best
possible reception.
FM OUTDOOR ANTENNA
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be necessary to use a 75-ohm unbalanced-type outdoor FM
antenna. Generally, a 3- element antenna will be sufficient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are
particularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or more elements. Connect the coaxial cable of
the antenna to the matching transformer as shown. After completing connection, plug the transformer
into the “FM 75
Ω
“ socket.
HOW TO CONNECT A COAXIAL CABLE TO THE MATCHING TRANSFORMER
1
Strip the cable and dress it as shown.
2
Press both side tabs outward to remove the cover.
