[3] ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
Connecting the Included Antennas
AM Loop Antenna
Assemble the included AM loop
antenna as shown in the diagram,
separate it as far from the system as
possible, and place it in a position that
provides the best reception. In some
cases, reception is better if the polar-
ities of the connections are reversed.
)
AM broadcasts will not be received
well if the loop antenna is not con-
nected or if it is connected but is
located near a metal part.
Attach the loop antenna even when
using an outdoor AM antenna.
Loop antenna
Assembling the Loop Antenna
e
Remove
the
tie
fastening
the
loop
antenna’s
lead
and
connect
the
lead
to
the
antenna
terminals.
FM Indoor Antenna
FM antenna
e
Separate
the
FM
and
AM
antenna
wires
from
the
system
connector wires.
e Connect the included FM indoor antenna to the FM
antenna terminal, tune in an FM station, then find the
position at which distortion and noise is minimum and
fasten the ends of the antenna in that position using tape
or pins.
Disconnect this antenna when using an outdoor antenna.
Connecting an Outdoor Antenna
Use an outdoor antenna if reception cannot be
heard clearly with the included antenna. Change
the location, height, and direction of the antenna to
find the position of best reception, then fix the
antenna in that position.
75-ohm coaxial cable
{3C-2V or other)
@ Connect the outdoor antenna using 75-ohm coaxial cable.
This will help shield the antenna from external noise.
Places for Installing Outdoor Antennas
¢ install the outdoor antenna facing a broadcast station's
transmission antenna.
When surrounded by buildings or hills, place the
antenna in the location which provides best reception
and try changing the direction of the antenna to obtain
optimum reception.
e@ Do not install the antenna under power lines.
It is extremely dangerous for the antenna to come into
contact with a power line.
e Install away from roads and train tracks to prevent
noise from cars and trains.
© Do not install the antenna too high, as it may be hit by
lightning.

automatically when the end of that side is reached.}
e Two-side recording/ playback mode ( ——_ )

side and continues from there. (The tape stops automati-
cally when the end of the back side is reached.)
e Continuous playback mode ( C2 )
