The loop antenna supplied will offer excellent reception in most situations. It is a directional antenna,
requiring orientation perpendicular to the radio station’s transmitter. Because of its directional behavior,
it will offer the quietest (least background noise) signal on high to medium strength stations, compared
to a straight wire antenna.
However, the loop antenna is not the most sensitive, and therefore may not satisfactorily receive medium
to weak stations, especially in automatic tuning modes. For maximum sensitivity, a straight wire (as long
as practical) should be connected to the “AM ANT” terminal. This type of antenna is relatively non-
directional, and will not yield the best signal-to-noise ratio, but will allow reception of the largest number
of stations.
When using alkaline batteries in the remote control, life expectancy of the batteries will be about one year
under normal usage.
The batteries will require replacement when the remote control ceases to function or the effective range
reduces. Be sure to replace the batteries with the same type as specified on the rear of the remote
housing. Alkaline batteries, though not necessary, will give the best performance.
It is recommended that the batteries be removed from the remote control if the unit is to be left idle for
extended periods.
If the faceplate should become soiled, it may be cleaned with a slightly damp, soft cloth, and if necessary,
a mild detergent. Do not use any abrasive cleaners or solvents. Unplug the power cord before
attempting any cleaning operations.
