1. AM FERRITE BAR ANTENNA
This Tuner comes with an AM built-in bar antenna. Rotate this bar antenna away from chassis for best reception ©
of AM stations.

2. FM ANTENNA UNBALANCED CONNECTION
This connector is used for 60 to 75 ohm unbalanced coaxial cable connection.
3. FM ANTENNA BALANCED TERMINAL
This 240 to 300 ohm balanced input is used for standard TV twin lead connection. The dipole antenna provided
with your Tuner should be adequate for local FM reception. Attach the antenna's arm horizontally to a non-
metallic surface such as a window, a wall, or the rear surface of a cabinet or shelf. In general, the antenna is best
positioned when it is as high as possible above floor level and its arms are perpendicular to the source of trans-
mission. If you are located a considerable distance from FM transmitters or in a ferroconcrete building, an out-
door FM-antenna may be required to reduce background noise, fading or interference.
4. AM GROUND TERMINAL
For best results when using an exteriiul AM antenna, the Tuner's chassis should be properly grounded and this is
easily done by connecting this terminal to the nearest water pipe or metal conduit that goes to true ground.
5. EXTERNAL AM ANTENNA
In ferroconcrete buildings or in areas remote from broadcast stations, the built-in antenna may not prove
adequate. To supplement the built-in antenna, connect 10 to 20 feet of insulated, flexible, single conductor wire
to this terminal, but this wire should be kept away from all speaker cables and power cables and run in a straight
line along a nonmetallic baseboard or under a rug.
6. TUNER OUTPUT JACKS
These output jacks are for the connection between the Tuner and your matching amplifier. Connect one end of
your leads to these output jacks and plug the other end to the TUNER inputs on your amplifier.
7, AC INPUT CORD
Plug this cord into AC outlet.
