ANTENNA
The AR-DV10 is supplied with a flexible rubber antenna to be attached to the 50 Ohm BNC
jack located on the top of the receiver.
Note:
・ AR-DV10 does not feature any internal AM ferrite antenna.
・ Due to physical limitations, the supplied flexible rubber antenna is not ideal for reception
of LW, MW or SW. Although it does work to some extent, a dedicated external antenna
should be connected for optimal reception of those bands. However, the receiver RF
stage is extremely sensitive, if a signal is too strong, it could potentially overload the RF
stage. Therefore, it is highly advised to use an external antenna signal attenuator when
connecting to an external antenna.
ANTENNA INSTALLATION
1. Make sure that the antenna ring is in place.
2. Align the slots of the antenna connector to the pins of the antenna jack.
3. Rotate the antenna connector clockwise ¼ turn to lock the mechanism.
・ To remove the flexible antenna, rotate the antenna counterclockwise ¼ turn to unlock
the mechanism.
The antenna ring fills the gap between the antenna and the jack. It should remain on the jack
when the antenna is removed. The ring does not fulfill any waterproof function.
