ANTENNA/CABLE CONNECTION
FM ANTENNA CONNECTION
To get the optimum sound of FM broadcasts, install a
suitable outdoor FM antenna.
The supplied ribbon antenna may be useful until you install a
more suitable antenna.
75-ohm coaxial cable connection
A 75-ohm coaxial cable is free from external interference,
reduces noise pickup, and is the ideal transmission line for
most FM
installations. 3C-2V cable is recommended.
Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cable to a commercially
available F-type connector and connect it to the FM ANT-B
connector.

Notes on the FM and TV antennas
— When the stereo receiver and video system are connected
and both are in use
We recommend the use of outdoor antennas to obtain better
quality picture and sound.
e Use the outdoor FM antenna for FM reception and the TV
antenna for TV reception. Do not use one antenna for both.
e Use 75-ohm coaxial cables for both antennas.
e Locate the two antennas as distant as possible from each
other.
If FM signals interfere with the TV picture and sound, press
any FUNCTION key to change the tuner mode to any other
mode.
