Connecting the AM Loop Antenna
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 terminal.)
Make sure that the wires are attached securely
and that the push terminals are gripping the bare
wires, not the insulation.
Once your TX-NR801/TX-NR801E 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 your
TX-NR801/TX-NR801E, TV, speaker cables,
and power cords.
