FM ANTENNA
FM Indoor Antenna
If you live reasonably close to a transmitter and want to
use the provided lead-type FM antenna, you will have to
connect it directly to the FM 75
Ω
socket.
Fit the metal sleeve of the lead-type antenna over the
core (center) conductor of the (FM 75
Ω
) socket, extend
the lead and attach it to the window frame or wall with
thumbtacks, or something similar, where reception is
best.
FM Outdoor Antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will be
necessary to use a 75
Ω
unbalanced-type outdoor FM
antenna using the optional matching transformer, as
shown. 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.
3. Wrap the core conductor around the central metal
fixture as shown.
AM INDOORS LOOP ANTENNA
To stand the antenna on a surface, fix the claw to the
slot.
The high performance AM loop antenna provided with
the receiver is sufficient for good reception in most areas.
Connect the loop antenna’s wires to the AM antenna
terminals as shown.
Place the antenna on a shelf or hang it on a window
frame, etc, in the direction with gives the best reception,
as far as possible from the entire system, speaker cords
and the power cords to prevent unwanted noise.
AM Loop Antenna (provided)
AM Outdoor Antenna
If the AM loop antenna provided does not deliver
sufficient reception (because you are too far from the
transmitter or in a concrete building, etc.), it may be
necessary to use an outdoor AM antenna.
Use an insulated wire more than 15 ft (5m) long, strip
one end, and connect this to the terminal as shown.
The antenna wire should be strung outdoors or indoors
near a window.
For better reception, connect the GND terminal to a
reliable ground.
Note: When connecting an outdoor AM antenna, do not
disconnect the AM loop antenna.
ANTENNA CONNECTION
1. Strip the cable and dress it as shown.
2. Press both side tabs outward to remove the cover.
