@ OUTDOOR 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-, 5-, or 7-element) antenna should be used.
m GROUNDING
Grounding is recommended if reception of FM programs is
impaired by noise. To ground, connect a thick polyvinyl insulated
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.
CAUTION:
Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks may
ignite the gas.
m EXTERNAL AM ANTENNA
If it is not possible to obtain adequate AM reception even by
changing the orientation of the AM loop antenna, a separate
indoor antenna, or an outdoor antenna should be installed.
INDOOR AM ANTENNA
Use a vinyl insulated wire (5 — 6 m, 17 — 20 feet), 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.
Setting Up the AM Antenna
elnsert the claw on the bottom
of the antenna
into the
groove in the leg.
@ Place the antenna on a level surface and rotate it to locate
the orientation that yields the best reception.
eUse the attachment hole in the leg to screw to a wall or
other iocation, then insert the claw on the bottom of the
antenna into the groove in the leg (affixing the antenna in
the direction that gives the best reception.)
