Use
the point
of
a pen
knife
to
open up
one end
of
a
2"
length
of
metal braid. Slide this
end over
the
capacitor mounting lug
at AU
(S-1
).
Route
the
braid
under
the terminal strip
BF
to
point
BA on
the
circuit
board
(S-1). Solder
the braid directly
to
the
foil.
Make
sure
this
braid
does
not touch any
metal
on
the
terminal strip.
Use
the
point of
a pen
knife
to
open up
one end
of
a
3"
length
of
metal
braid.
Slide
the
braid over
the
capacitor
mounting
lug
at
AT
(S-1
).
Solder
the
other
end
of
the
braid
to
the
three solder
lugs
AN,
AP,
and
AR.
Use
the
point of
a pen
knife
to
open up
one end
of
a
1-3l4"
length
of
metal
braid.
Slide
the braid
over lug
2
of
terminal
strip

Solder
the other
end

Open
up both
ends
of a
1-1
14"
leng6h
of
metal
braid
with a knife point.
Slide one end
of
the
braid onto
solder lug
AF
(S-1

and
the
other
end over
the
solder
lug
on
the
rear
of
variable
capacitor G
(S-1

( )
Refer
to
Detail
14A
and
form
a
twisted
pair
from two
11"
lengths
of
red
stranded
wire.
Remove
114"
ot
insulation
from the
end
of
each
wire. Twist the fine
strands
together,
and
melt
a
small
amount
of
solder on
the
ends
of
each
wire.
( )
Refer
to
Detail
148
and,
at
one end
of
the
twisted
pair,
connect one
wire
to
lug
4
(S-1) and
the
other
wire
to
lug
5
(S-1)
of control
B.
( )
At
the other
end
of
the twisted
pair,
connect
one
wire
to
lug
1
(NS) and
the
other
wire
to
lug
2
(NS)
of
(
)
terminal strip
AK,
Route
these
wires
as
shown,
NOTE:
When a
wire
passes
through
a
connection and then
goes
to
another
point,
as
in
the next
step,
it will
count
as
two
wires
in the
solder
instructions,
one entering and
one
leaving
the connection.

lf
this
receiver
will
be
used
in
Canada,
these
instructions
for
wiring terminal strip
AK
must
be
followed
to
comply with
Canadian standards.
So
the
clearance
between
lugs
will not
be reduced,
all
leads
to
lugs
2
through
5
must
be
wrapped
at the
top of
the
solder
lug. Connections
to
lugs
'l
and 6
may
be
wrapped around
the
side
away
from
lugs
2
or
5.
