How to use the A/B FM antenna
terminals
Use the A terminal for the main FM antenna con-
nection. For best reception Akai recommends the
use of a higher grade FM outdoor antenna for the
main antenna. Adjust it's direction so that as many
stations as possible can be received.
Use the B terminal for the sub FM antenna connec-
tion. Use the sub FM antenna to catch stations that
the main antenna can't pick up by setting it in a dif-
ferent position.

How to use the FM antenna plug
Connect the FM antenna to the A (750) terminal
using the provided FM antenna plug.
Prepare a 75 ohm coaxial cable (3C-2V or
5C-2V; not provided) by stripping off approx. 10
mm of the outer insulation. Be careful not to cut
through the copper wire 'net' beneath it. Fold
back the copper wire and then strip off about 5
mm of the inner wire's insulating cover. Fig. 1
2 Rotate the FM antenna plug and take it apart.
Pass the prepared 75 ohm coaxial cable
through part (a) as shown in Fig. 2, and then
return the copper wire to it's folded back
position.
3 Insert the inner wire of the coaxial cable through
the center hole of part (b) and stop when the
folded back copper wire surrounds the bottom
of part (b). (If there is a multiple core
c~nter
strand, first twist it together to form a single
strand.) Fig. 3
4 Fit parts (a) and (c) together in the order shown
in Fig. 4 and screw together as shown in Fig. 5.
