SILENT SERVO
circuit
Since the clock frequency is not needed after tuning has been
completed, this circuit cuts it out, thereby improving sound
quality by avoiding the noise and intermodulation distortion
that could
be caused
by spurious
high frequency
"beat"
interference.
AM SERVO
circuit
This dramatically reduces distortion by actively adjusting AGC
(automatic gain control) response time during and after tuning.
@ pe
AM Loop Antenna
Unfold all four legs of the AM loop antenna toward the
outside, and insert the stopper inside the legs into the
hole in the AM loop antenna to fix it in position.
e
Set the antenna on a level surface, and point in the
direction that gives optimum reception.

Do not install the antenna in locations where it touches
the cover of the unit or other metal objects, or near a
CD player, personal computer, or television set.

@ Outdoor FM antenna
6) Stereo amplifier
© Connecting the power cord
Plug the power cord into (SWITCHED) the auxiliary power
outlet on the amplifier or into an AC wall socket.
@ Antenna ground
Although grounding is not always necessary for reception,
it is recommended
for protection against damage from
lightning if an outdoor FM antenna is used. Grounding is
recommended
as well to help reduce noise and hum.
NOTE:
Never make the ground connection to a gas pipe as sparks
could cause the gas to ignite.
