arms as straight as possible. The dipole
antenna is somewhat directional. It should be
positioned for best reception of the desired
stations.
Experimenting with the dipole position may
be necessary to reduce multipath distortion
on certain stations. Since it is not convenient
to continually change the position of the
dipole, you may have to set it for minimum
multipath on your favorite station.
IMPORTANT
Keep the dipole away from large
metal objects or surfaces. They inter-
fere with the efficiency of the antenna.
An outdoor FM antenna is recommended
for best FM reception under all conditions.
In fringe areas, a highly directional FM an-
tenna used with a rotator will give the finest
possible FM reception. Rotate the antenna
until it points in the direction of the station or
until it receives the best possible signal. Use
the multipath, signal strength and tuning
indicators to position the antenna correctly.
75 OHM ANTENNA
OUTDOOR FM ANTENNA
An unbalanced 75 ohm FM antenna can be
used with the MR 71. A BNC connector is
provided. Connect a Male BNC connector
to the female BNC connector on the rear
panel of the MR 71.

listening level.
If the fixed audio output jacks are used, the
tuner volume control will not affect volume.

1. Turn the MODE SELECTOR to MONO to
listen only to monophonic FM.
Note: If you wish to receive monophonic
FM and have the MR 71 automatically switch
to a stereo broadcast available on the same
station set the MODE SELECTOR to STEREO
AUTO.
2. Turn the MUTING to IN.
3. Turn the FM TUNING KNOB to the
desired station. The TUNING indicator pointer
should be in the black area in the center of
the indicator.
4. Rotate the directional antenna for best
reception as shown by the signal strength
and multipath indicators.
5. Adjust the VOLUME control to desired
listening level.
