The polarity reversing plug must be positioned correctly before
installing your radio or making any electrical connections
to the
radio.
Set the polarity
plug to the positive
noneen if the
positive
terminal of the battery is grounded to the car.
Set the polarity plug to the negative

@) ANTENNA TRIMMER ADJUSTMENT
With radio installed
in car
and
auto
antenna fully extended,
tune in a weak station near
1400Kc
and
adjust CT-3
for maxi-
mum
output. (Fig. 1)
While this adjustment, one of AM push-buttons
must be push-
ed in for AM
