Areas in close proximity to strong stations
Extend the supplied 300-ohm twin-lead folded dipole and fix it
to a wall or similar, in a position that yields best reception (high-
est number of signal strength indicators light up when receiv-
ing a desired station).
- Note that gain and directivity of the dipole antenna are low.
Often multipath (reflections of broadcast signals by nearby
buildings etc.) will occur, which degrades sound quality. Also,
heavy traffic, railroads, or high-voltage power lines in the
vicinity of the reception location may cause noise interfer-
ence. Installation of a 3-element outdoor FM antenna is rec-
ommended in such cases.

Fringe areas in considerable distance from stations,
or urban areas with numerous high-rise buildings
Use an outdoor FM antenna with 5 to 8 elements.
Areas with many noise or interference sources
Use shielded coaxial cable (5C-2V or 3C-2V) for the antenna
connection.
- A long antenna cable introduces signal loss and is prone to
externally induced noise. For optimum performance, you
should keep the connection as short as possible.
