EXTERNAL FM ANTENNA
The main
advantage
of FM
over AM
is the quality of the
broadcast signal. In order to benefit fully from the high signal
quality of FM broadcasts, it is recommended
that a special-
purpose
FM
antenna
be installed.
In weak
signal
areas, a
multi-element
(3 element,
5 element,
7 element)
antenna
should be used.
,
NOTE:
Consult your dealer as to the selection and actual installation
of the FM antenna.
FM ANTENNA CONNECTIONS (Figs. [5], [6])
There are two ways
of connecting
the FM
antenna
to the
antenna
input terminals:
with a 300-ohm twin-lead feeder or
with a 75-ohm coaxial cable. If full justice is to be done to the
tuner's performance, a 75-ohm coaxial cable is reommended
since it is more immune than the twin-lead feeder to noise and
interference
from
external
sources.
If an
FM
antenna
has
already been
erected
outdoors, connect
it, referring to the
figure.

GROUNDING (Fig. &))
Grounding
is recommended
if reception of FM programs
is
impaired by noise. To ground, connect a thick polyvinyl wire
to the GND terminal and attach the other end to a metal water
pipe or grounding bar or wind it around a copper plate and bury
it.
NOTE:
Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks
may ignite the gas.
EXTERNAL AM ANTENNAS (Fig. [7])
If it is not possible to obtain adequate AM reception even by
changing the orientation fo the AM loop antenna, a separate
indoor antenna, or an outdoor antenna should be installed.
INDOOR
AM
ANTENNA
Use a vinyl insulated wire (5-6m) and connect one end to the
AM antenna terminal and affix the other end to the wall or
ceiling, as high as possible.
OUTDOOR
AM
ANTENNA
If reception quality is not improved sufficiently even when an
indoor
antenna
is used, a viny! insulated
wire should
be
installed outside and fixed in place.
NOTE:
Do not detach the AM loop antenna when using an indoor or
an outdoor AM antenna.
