Antenna Installation

∑Installation of AM antenna
AM indoor antenna
Connect an AM antenna to the AM
antenna terminal on the rear panel.
Without an AM antenna, you cannot
receive AM broadcasting.
Outdoor antenna
When you install an AM outdoor antenna,
it is recommended that you should avoid
high-voltage cables, materials of metal,
roadside and so on (mountains or places
near a building) near the antenna.
It is better to install an antenna far away
from high-voltage cables, valleys, or
buildings.
How to assemble AM antenna
OInstall it after assembling an antenna as
shown.
∑Installation of FM antenna
FM indoor antenna
If you live reasonably close to a transmitter
and want to use the provided lead-type FM
antenna, you will have to connect it direct
to the "FM 75Ω" socket. Fit the metal sleeve
of the lead-type antenna over the core
(center) conductor of the "FM 75Ω" socket,
extend the lead and fix it to a window
frame or wall with thumbtacks, or the like,
where reception is best.

Matching Transformer
(Optional)
AM loop antenna
FM outdoor antenna
Generally, a 3-element antenna will be
sufficient; if you live in an area where the
FM signals are particularly weak, it may be
necessary to use one with 5 or more
elements. Connect the coaxial cable of the
antenna to the matching transformer as
shown. After completing connection, plug
the transformer into the "FM 75Ω" socket.
Caution
It is recommended that an outdoor antenna
should be installed by an antenna expert.
