CONNECTING THE FM ANTENNA
Choose an FM antenna that is appropriate to the local
reception conditions,
Consider the distance from the
broadcast
station and possible interfering objects such as
surrounding tall buildings.
In cases where there is a strong
signal from a local station, a portable T-type antenna is
usually adequate. Connect the feeder wire to the 300 ohm
terminal, stretch the wire out tight, and turn to obtain
optimum reception. Attach to a suitable support such as a
wall.

In all but the best reception conditions, an outdoor FM
antenna is necessary for best results. Either 300 ohms flat
twin-lead wire or 75 ohms coaxial cable may be used. In
locations where electrical interference is a problem, coaxial
cable is preferable.

CONNECTING
THE AM ANTENNA
In many cases it will be possible to get excellent AM recep-
tion with the provided AM loop antenna. Attach the
antenna leads to the Gnd and AM Ant terminals and rotate
the antenna in its bracket for best reception. The loop
antenna may also be removed and hung on the wall.
If necessary, an outdoor antenna
may be used for improved
AM reception. Connect a 5-10 meter length of insulated
wire to the AM Ant terminal and run it outdoors.
The loop antenna should not be disconnected.
The loop antenna may also be `
removed and hung on the
wall.
1. Clip to rear panel.
2. Try changing the direction
of the loop antenna.
"NOTE ON FM/AM ANTENNA INSTAL-
LATION
This tuner has both an auto-search type tuning system
with 100kHz steps on FM and 10kHz steps on AM and a
manual tuning system. Normally, with stations stronger
than 104V (3004V/m on AM when using the loop
antenna), auto-search tuning can be used to find and
tune in stations automatically. Weaker stations may be
tuned in with manual step tuning. Try rechecking the
antenna connections and adjusting the location, direction,
and height of the antenna to increase the signal strength to
a high enough level for proper reception.
@ CONNECTING
THE AMPLIFIER
Use the cable supplied to connect from the output jacks
to the tuner input jacks of your amplifier, being sure to
observe the left and right channel markings. Also make
sure that the connections are secure and that the
connecting cable is not bundled with the speaker leads
or power cord from the amplifier.
