FM Indoor Antenna
Connect the lead-type FM antenna to the FM 75Ω socket,
extend the lead and tune in your favourite station (see
page 30). Adjust the antenna in a suitable location like a
window frame or wall until the reception is best and then
affix the antenna in that position using thumb tacks, push
pins or any other suitable means.
FM Outdoor Antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, it may be necessary
to use an FM outdoor 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.
<
Disconnect the FM indoor antenna when using an
outdoor antenna.
AM Indoor Loop Antenna
The high-performance AM loop antenna provided with
this unit is sufficient for good reception in most areas.
To stand the loop antenna on a surface, fix the claw to the
slot in the antenna base.
Connect the loop antenna’s wires to the AM antenna
terminals.
Place the antenna on a shelf or hang it on a window
frame, etc., in the direction which gives the best
reception. Keep all other wires such as power cords,
speaker wires or interconnect wires as far away as possible
from the antenna.
<
If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver
sufficient reception (often due to being too far from
the transmitter or in a concrete building, etc.), it may
be necessary to use an AM outdoor antenna.
Use either a high quality commercially available AM
antenna or, if not available, an insulated wire more
than 5 m long. Strip one end, and connect this to the
terminal as shown.
The antenna wire should be fitted outdoors or indoors
near a window. For better reception, connect the GND
terminal to a reliable ground.
Note:
Even when using an AM outdoor antenna, do not
disconnect the AM loop antenna.
