Adding the AM and FM
antennas
Attaching
the
supplied
antennas
The rear panel of the media center provides jacks for AM and FM antennas (Figure 16). Be
sure to unwind the wires of each antenna to ensure the best reception.
Note: An outdoor antenna may be used in place of the two that are supplied. To instafl an
outdoor antenna, consult a qualified installer. Follow all safety instructions supplied
with that
antenna.
FM antenna
Plug the connector on the single end of the antenna into the FM antenna jack on the media
center rear panel. Spread out the antenna arms at the other end and move them around to
establish optimum FM reception. Extend the antenna as far from the media center and other
external equipment as possible.
AM antenna
1.
Plug the connector end of the antenna into the AM antenna jack on the media center.
2.
Move the antenna loop as far as possible, at least 20 inches (50 centimeters), from the
media center and at least 4 feet (1.2 meters) from the Acoustimass _ module. Experiment
with positioning the loop for optimum AM reception.
3.
Follow the instructions enclosed with the AM loop antenna to stand it on the supplied
base, or you can mount it to a wall.
Attaching
cable
radio
Some cable TV providers make FM radio signals available through the cable service to your
home. This connection
is made to the external FMjack on the back panel of the media cen-
ter. To connect to this service, contact your cable TV provider for assistance.
._ Note: Make sure that the cable radio installation includes a signal splitter so that only the FM
radio band, not the cable TV band, is received by the media center. If necessary, contact a
qualified installer.
