Either of the split ends of the AM antenna can be connected to

AM broadcast signals.
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction
and position where you receive signals clearly. Put it as far away
as possible from the TX-DS494, televisions, speaker cables, and
power cords.
When reception is not satisfactory with the attached AM loop
antenna alone, connection of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
