Connecting a ground wire
If you connect an outdoor aerial, be sure to connect a
ground wire (not supplied) to the AM ANTENNA y
terminal (in addition to the AM loop aerial) for
lightning protection.
Assemble the supplied aerial as shown below.
Connect the AM loop aerial to the AM terminals
on the back of this unit. For best reception,
connect an insulated wire (not supplied) in
addition to the AM loop aerial. (See "For best AM
reception" below.)

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.
Try repositioning the loop aerial while tuning. Placing the
supplied AM loop aerial near a window will help improve
reception quality.
Connect a 6 to 15-meter insulated wire (not supplied) to the
AM aerial terminal in addition to the AM loop aerial. Try to
extend the wire outdoors and keep it horizontal.
Do not disconnect the AM loop aerial.
