Connecting an Antenna
This chapter explains how to connect the supplied indoor
FM antenna and AM loop antenna and how to connect com-
mercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas.
The CD Receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without
any antenna connected, so you must connect an antenna to
use the tuner.
The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only.
1
Attach the FM antenna, as shown.
Once the CD Receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to
tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of
the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
2
Use thumbtacks or something similar to
fix the FM antenna into position.
Caution:
Be careful that you don’t injure yourself
when using thumbtacks.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor FM antenna, try using a commercially available out-
door FM antenna instead (see page 13).
The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only.
1
Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting
the tabs into the base, as shown.
2
Connect both wires of the AM loop
antenna to the AM push terminals, as
shown.
(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so they
can be connected in either push terminal.)
Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that
the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the
insulation.
Once the CD Receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to
tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of
the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.
Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the CD
Receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied
indoor AM loop antenna, try using a commercially available
outdoor AM antenna (see page 13).
