ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
NOTE FOR FM ANTENNA:
Stretch the antenna out to its full length and affix it to a wall, etc.
NOTE FOR AM LOOP ANTENNA:
The antenna should be placed at a distance from the receiver,
and should not be allowed to touch metallic objects. Avoid
placing it near CD players, personal computers, television sets
and other devices generating radio frequencies.
Setting Up the AM Antenna
÷Insert the claw on the bottom of the antenna into the
groove in the leg.
÷ Place the antenna on a level surface and rotate it to locate
the orientation that yields the best reception.
÷Use the attachment hole in the leg to screw to a wall or
other location, then insert the claw on the bottom of the
antenna into the groove in the leg (affixing the antenna in
the direction that gives the best reception.)
Twist the wire strands together.
Stretch the antenna out
to its full “T” shape and
affix it to a wall, etc.

7 OUTDOOR FM ANTENNA
The main advantage of FM over AM is the quality of the
broadcast signal. In order to benefit fully from the high signal
quality of FM broadcasts, it is recommended that a special-
purpose FM antenna be installed. In weak signal areas, a multi-
element (3-, 5-, or 7-element) antenna should be used.
7 GROUNDING
Grounding is recommended if reception of FM programs is
impaired by noise. To ground, connect a thick polyvinyl insulated
wire to the GND terminal and attach the other end to a metal
water pipe or grounding bar or wind it around a copper plate
and bury it.
CAUTION:
Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks may
ignite the gas.
7 EXTERNAL AM ANTENNA
If it is not possible to obtain adequate AM reception even by
changing the orientation of the AM loop antenna, a separate
indoor antenna, or an outdoor antenna should be installed.
INDOOR AM ANTENNA
Use a vinyl insulated wire (5 — 6 m, 17 — 20 feet), and connect
one end to the AM antenna terminal and affix the other end to
the wall or ceiling, as high as possible.
OUTDOOR AM ANTENNA
If reception quality is not improved sufficiently even when an
indoor antenna is used, a vinyl insulated wire should be installed
outside and fixed in place.
NOTE:
Do not detach the AM loop antenna when using an indoor or an
outdoor AM antenna.
