HINTS FOR BETTER RECEPTION
I
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
sig-
nal areas, a multi-element (3-element, 5-element, 7-ele-
mentl antenna should be used.
I
GROUNDING
Grounding is
recommended
if reception of
FM
programs
is impa
ired by noise.
To
ground, connect a thick polyvi-
nyl-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.
NOTE:
Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks
may ignite the gas.
I
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 v
inyl-insul
ated wire 5 to 6 meters long (15 to
18
feet)
and connect one end to the AM antenna terminal
and affix
the
other end to the wall or ceiling, as
high as
possible.
NOTE;
.
Do not detach the AM loop antenna when using an indoor
or
an
outdoor AM antenna.
OUTDOOR AM ANTENNA
If
reception
quality
is not improved sufficiently even
when an indoor antenna is used, a vinyl-insu lated wire
should be installed outside and fixed in place.
