ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
RADIO RECEPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE UNLESS
THE ANTENNA IS PROPERLY CONNECTED.
The strength of broadcast signal varies from one area to
another (signal propagation is especially poor in metropolitan
areas, where there are may tall buildings, and in mountainous
areas}. Proper antenna installation is vital to good reception.
AM ANTENNA
The AM loop antenna supplied with the cassette deck receiver
should
be connected
to the AM
antenna
terminals. The
antenna should be placed at a distance from the cassette deck
receiver, and should not be allowed to touch metallic objects.
Avoid placing it near CD players, personal computers, televi-
sion sets, and other devices generating radio frequencies.
Setting up the AM antenna
®
Fold out the supports on the bottom of the antenna. Insert
the stopper in the hole in the antenna to lock them in place.
°
Place the antenna on a level surface and rotate it to locate
the orientation that yields the best reception.

Indoor AM antenna
Provide a vinyl-coated wire (5 to 6 meters long). Secure one
end to the AM terminal and the other end to a wall or other
high location.
Outdoor AM antenna
If reception is still poor even when a lead antenna has been
stretched out indoors, stretch out a vinyl-coated wire and se-
cure it outdoors.

External FM antenna installation
Use an external antenna when the signals from the station are
weak and cannot be picked up by the accessory FM T-type
antenna, or when the sound heard is accompanied by large
amounts of noise. There are two ways of connecting the
external FM antenna to the ANTENNA terminals with 3000
feeder wire, or with a 75@ coaxial cable.
It is recommended that you use the 752 coaxial cable, so that
the effects of extraneous noise are reduced to a minimum.
