This Quick Start contains the basic steps necessary to set up and operate your i. AM. Radio Transmitter  
using the Indoor Wire Antenna. Please read the detailed procedures in this manual for complete  
instructions, especially if your set-up includes the Outdoor Antenna.

1

 Make sure the Control Lock Key is inserted in the Control Lock hole 

located on the rear of the Transmitter. This key must be completely 
inserted to record messages and set the frequency on the transmitter.  
Also, make sure that “ANTENNA SELECT” switch is in the  
“Basic” position.

2

 Connect the indoor 

antenna and be sure 
to uncoil and fully 
extend the wire.

6

 The SPEAKER 

VOLUME should be 
turned off when  
using the mic to 
avoid feedback.

5

 Next, plug the power 

transformer into a 
grounded wall outlet, 
and then plug the power 
cord into the CUSTOM 
POWER input jack  
located on the back 
of the Transmitter. 
 
The Transmitter will 
then begin calibrating 
itself. When it is finished 
calibrating, a frequency 
will appear on the front 
panel display.  

4

 Plug the hand-held 

microphone into the 
MIC jack located on  
the back of the Trans-
mitter. 

If you are not 

using a hand-held mic

 

the transmitter input 
will default to the 
internal microphone 
located just under the 
perforated lid. 
 
Or, plug any line-level 
source (Mp3 player, 
Cassette deck) into the 
LINE INPUT jack on the 
rear panel.

3

 Set the TWO-PART 

MESSAGE SELECT 
switch to Part-one. 
You are now  
ready to record  
a message to be 
broadcast via the 
internal or external 
mic or any external 
input source con-
nected to the LINE 
INPUT jack.
