HINTS FOR BETTER RECEPTION
FM - Make sure that the telescopic FM Rod Antenna is raised and extended to its full length. You may have
to vary the direction of the antenna to find the strongest signal for each FM station.
AM - The AM ferrite bar antenna is located inside the cabinet. It may be necessary to turn the unit slightly so
that the internal antenna is pointing in the direction of the AM transmitter. You may have to experiment to
find the position that provides the strongest reception for each of your favorite AM stations.
