Important
• The signal ground (
) is designed to reduce noise
that occurs when an antenna is connected. It is not
an electrical safety ground.
FM wire antenna
•
Connect the FM wire antenna to the FM UNBAL
75
Ω
in the same way as the AM antenna.
For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a
wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled up.
Using an external antenna to improve FM
reception
Use an F connector to connect an external FM antenna
using a coaxial 75
Ω
cable.
Attaching the antenna adapter
Use the antenna adaptor to terminate the coaxial cable
used with an external FM antenna.
1 Cut and strip the coaxial cable to the
specification shown in the diagram.
2 Open the adaptor body by pulling apart the tabs
on either side.
3 Insert the cable as shown, then use a pair of
pliers to wrap the end of the wire around the
binding post. Snip off the excess wire.
4 Use pliers to secure the cable by pinching the
clamps together, as shown.
5 Push the body cover back on.
Using an external antenna to improve AM
reception
To improve AM reception, connect a 5 m to 6 m length of
vinyl-coated wire to the
AM LOOP
terminals without
disconnecting the supplied AM loop antenna.
For the best possible reception, suspend horizontally
outdoors.
