Assemble the supplied AM antenna' s base by swinging the base in the
direction of the arrow and inserting the antenna' s bottom tabs into
the base' s slot. If the receiver is in a rack or on a shelf and there is no
room for the AM loop antenna, use two screws (not supplied) to

• Ensure that the antenna does not touch the receiver or any other
metal object.
• Do not place the antenna near a CD player, a personal computer,
or a TV set.
• If the wire between the AM loop antenna and your receiver is
too short, you can add extra wire, available at your local
RadioShack store.
