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.
