How To Connect Antennas - McIntosh MR89 Owner's Manual

How to Connect Antenna Components
1. Using the supplied shielded cable, connect one
end into the RAA2 AM Antenna jack and the
other end of the same cable into the MR89 Tuner
jack labeled RAA2 AM ANT.
Note: If a longer length cable needs to be used between
the MR89 and the RAA2 AM Antenna, use an 8
conductor straight-thru cable with an outer shield
and RJ45 connectors on each end (shielded CAT5,
CAT5e or CAT6 patch cable).
2. Connect a 75 ohm coax cable from a FM
Antenna or cable system to the MR89, 75 OHM
FM ANT Connector.

Mounting the RAA2 AM Antenna
Tune to a station with the weakest signal and orient
the RAA2 Antenna for maximum signal with minimum
noise and distortion. After the location is determined,
the RAA2 AM Antenna may be secured to a suitable
surface by using two #6 1-3/4 to 2 inches (4.44 to
5.08cm) long screws, refer to the illustration below.
