Antenna
BUILT-IN AM/FM ANTENNAS
AM -The BUILT-IN ANTENNA (200 mm Ferrite Rod) is somewhat directional, and on weak
stations it may be necessary to rotate the radio for best reception.
The FM WHIP antenna is not used for AM reception.
FM - The WHIP ANTENNA may be positioned anywhere within an 18O degree arc and is capable
of rotating 360 degrees. To use, lift and extend the WHIP to its fullest length. For distant stations, it
may be necessary to adjust the WHIP antenna's position for best reception.
NOTE: To avoid damaging the WHIP, always lower its sections one at a time starting with the
largest diameter. Never lower the WHIP from the tip end since buckling or bending is possible. Be
sure the slot provided in the base of the swivel antenna is positioned properly before lowering the
WHIP into its holder clip.
WHIP ANTENNA REPLACEMENT
The whip antenna has been designed so that it is easily replaced in the event it is damaged. The
antenna's mounting post goes through a hole in the cabinet top and is held in place by a single
screw through the cabinet back. Simply remove the screw and slide the post out of the cabinet
top. To install the replacement, reverse the procedure.
EXTERNAL AM/FM ANTENNA TERMINALS
Although the radio normally provides excellent reception utilizing its built-
in antennas, it offers the additional capability of connecting outside AM
or FM antennas to the EXTERNAL ANTENNA terminals on the cabinet
back. External antennas can be used in poor reception areas (inside steel
and concrete buildings) or to improve reception of distant stations. The
antenna required for FM differs from the type needed for AM reception.
AM - An AM antenna for outside installation connects to the screw
terminals on the cabinet back marked AM and GND.
FM - You may use your TV antenna or an outside FM antenna. The twin
leads connect to the screw terminals marked FM (300 ohm) and GND.
IMPORTANT: External antennas are available from local parts stores. Follow all safety instructions
(provided with antenna) when installing any outside antenna.
