this to the terminal as shown. The antenna wire should
be strung outdoors or indoors near a window. For better
reception, connect the GND terminal to a reliable
ground.
Note: Even when using an outdoor AM antenna, do not
disconnect the AM loop antenna.
FM Outdoor Antenna
In an area where FM signals are weak, it will beAM Loop Antenna
necessary to use a 75-ohm unbalanced-type outdoor FM(provided)
antenna. Generally, a 3-element antenna will be suffi-
cient; if you live in an area where the FM signals are par-
ticularly weak, it may be necessary to use one with 5 or
more elements.
A 75-ohm antenna uses a coaxial cable and should be
connected as follows: first strip the covering of the cable,
then twist the wire shielding so the inner core and shield-
ing can be connected as shown.

How to connect antenna
Press the lever, insert the
stripped and twisted end of the
wire, then release the lever so
that the wire is held securely.
