Models for Europe are designed for the connection of a
75-ohm 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.

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 antenna terminals, as shown. For details of how to
connect the antenna wires to the terminals, see the
illustration.
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.

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.
75-ohm antenna use a coaxial cable and should be
connected as follows: first strip the covering of the
cable, then twist the wire shielding so the inner core
and shielding can be connected as shown.

(optional)
If you live reasonably close to a transmitter and want to
use the provided lead-type FM antenna, you will have
to connect it direct 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 fix it to a window frame or wall with
thumbtacks, or the like, where reception is best.
