Using The T 765 - Am/Fm/Db/Ipod; Listening To Radio - NAD T765 HD Owner's Manual

OPERATION
USING THE T 765 – AM/FM/DB/iPod
LISTENING TO AM/FM RADIO
The T 765's internal AM/FM tuner offers very high quality sound from radio
broadcasts. The reception and sound quality will always be dependent to a
degree however on the type of antenna(s) used as well as proximity to the
broadcast origin, geography and weather conditions.
ABOUT ANTENNAS
The supplied ribbon-wire FM antenna can be connected to the rear-panel
FM-antenna input using the included 'balun' adapter and should be fully
extended to form a "T". This folded-dipole antenna will usually work best
when oriented vertically, with the arms of its "T" fully outstretched and
arranged perpendicular to the origin of the desired broadcast. There are
no 'rules' however, and experimenting freely with antenna placement and
orientation may yield the clearest sound and lowest background noise.
In areas of poor FM reception, an exterior FM antenna can improve performance
dramatically. If radio listening is important to you, consider consulting an antenna
installation professional to optimize your system.
The supplied AM 'loop' antenna will usually provide adequate reception.
However, an exterior AM antenna can be used to improve reception.
Consult an antenna professional for more information.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Unless otherwise specifically stated, navigating or accessing AM/FM
functions can be undertaken by using either the HTR 3 remote control
or the front panel buttons. If the control button or icon button being
