AM aerial hookups
What will I need?
AM loop aerial (supplied) (1)
1 Set up the supplied aerial.
You can use the aerial by standing it (Example 1)
or fixing it to a wall (Example 2).
2 Connect the AM loop aerial to the AM
ANTENNA terminals on the back of the CD
Receiver.
3 Adjust the aerial direction for the best reception.
The AM loop aerial has a directivity which detects
the signal from some angles more strongly than
others. Set the aerial to the orientation which
provides the best receiving condition.
If a high pitched noise (beat noise) occurs when
recording AM broadcasts, adjust the position of
the AM loop aerial so that the noise disappears.
If you live in a building constructed of reinforced
concrete, or with a steel frame, you may not be
able to achieve good reception since the radio
waves become weaker indoors.
For stations that are difficult to receive
Try repositioning the loop aerial while tuning. Placing
the supplied AM loop aerial near a window will help
improve reception quality.
FM aerial hookups
With an FM outdoor aerial, you can obtain higher FM
broadcast sound quality.
What will I need?
FM outdoor aerial (not supplied) (1) and 75-ohm coaxial cable
with IEC female type connector (not supplied) (1)
Connect an FM outdoor aerial (not supplied) to the FM
ANTENNA terminal on the back of the CD Receiver.
Connecting a ground wire
If you connect an outdoor aerial, be sure to connect an
earth lead (not supplied) to the AM ANTENNA y
terminal (in addition to the AM loop aerial) for
lightning protection.
Audio component hookups
What cords will I need?
Audio cords (not supplied) (2)
When connecting an audio cord, be sure to match the
colour-coded pins to the appropriate jacks on the
components: Red (right) to Red and White (left) to
