Using an external antenna

The Wave SoundTouch music system power cord is used as an
® ™
antenna for FM radio. If, after adjusting the position of the power
cord, you still experience poor reception, you may need to install
an external antenna. An external dipole antenna can be ordered
through Bose Customer Service. See the phone numbers listed
inside the back cover of this guide.
1.
Insert the 3.5 mm plug of the FM antenna into the
FM ANTENNA connector.
2. Extend the ends of the antenna as far from the unit and
other external equipment as possible to establish optimum
reception.

Note: Many FM radio stations transmit a vertically polarized signal
as well as, or instead of, a horizontally polarized signal. If
the horizontal antenna orientation does not provide good
reception, try hanging the antenna in a vertical orientation.
