The Dynaco FM"5 is lhe culntination of mr.rre than {i
years of Dynaco design research r+,ith the ilvorved goai of
exemplary performance under a rvide range of recxtption
conditions at rnodest cost. Its compact size nonetlieless
provides a generolrs la-vout for casv kit cori:;tnrclion ancl
outstanding serviceability. In additjon. an t xt:cpti,ural cle-

tively, an accessory phono preamtr) module, .l!I<x_lr:l

The primary consideration in the devekrirrletrt of cach

receives from its antenna. The lrrogrer anl.entra is ttrus a
vital adjunct to your music system. A section of this
manual gives some suggestions in this reganl, but cornpe_
tent Iocal advice which takes into accourrt ihe part,ictilar
Iocation of the tuner will always be aclvantasr:ous.
Vanishingly low distortion has always been a hallrnark
of any product bearing the Dynaco name. ,fhe I'M-5
establishes new standards, not only for tylrical in-phase
stereo measuremenls, but for signals of dissimilar pirase
characteristics as well. Coupled with out,sLanding phase
integrity in a solid state tuner, this yields *:xen4,lary
results with any of the matrix-type 4-Dimensional (some_
times incorrectly called 4-Charrnel) broadcasl.ing,qysterns
now proposed, including the ingeniously sinrptc IIyNA_
QUAD'* system developed by Dynaco.
Any successful high performance audio kit design inust
concomitantly deliver unchanging results ovnr extended
use. This also implies assurance that the standards set bv
the factory assembled units are consistentiy, rcproducibll
when even a novice properly assembles the kit. The more
than 15 year old Dynaco reputation for consistentlv meet-
lng conservative, detailed specifications is your best guar_
antee that, the FM-5 will do just that. The two fiberllass
etched circuit boards and the front end assembly twirictr
contain all of the active circuitry) have been cimpletely

for the kit, leaving
notlring but their interconnec:tionfor the liuilcl'er. Th;
excellent specifications of ther FM_5 art: possible, and
guaranteeable,
rrnit to unit, lab model to pioduction kit,
becauseof the extraordinarv unifornrity which etched cirj
cuits provide, and the inherent si,abilitv of the circuit
confiElration.
The capability for the finest perfornrrnce is of little
value if it cannot be readil.y utilized in norrnal use" 'fhe
consummate
oJrerating
ease
of the IrM_jj is a case
in point.
You-simply Lekeyour h:rncloff the tuning knob as soon

fhe FM-i-l actually exceeds
its own IHI,. s;;ecifications
when it colnes to listenable results. The IHIr pror:erclure
for determining the distortion specification of a tuner
allows readjustrnent of the s()urcesignal for the lowest
measurable distortion. you the listener cannot rio this.
In the past -youhave had l.o rely on the uncertainty of

of noise,
befcrre
it will switch on the audio. Then it automatically
fine-tunesto the exactcenter of the IrM channel (the min_
imurn distortion point) in either mono or stereo.
Such pre_
cisetuning is accomplished
faster
and moreaccuratelytiran
any other tuning system.
A clearly audible virtue of this designis the total elimi-
nation of switching transienls in tl.re
operation of the mut_
ing function. And you have the convenienceof interstation
muting down to the levelsof the weakest
useable
signals_
in the vicinity of 4 microvolts! 'Ihe result is absolute
silence,-<rr the station in correct tune. Only the tr'M_b
achieves
this ultimate goal of a tuner. This rehnedmuting
circuit eliminates the possibility of damaging speakers
oi
solid state amplifiers as a result of the low'frequency
"thumps" so comnlon in the past with raprd dial ma"ipu_
lation-. Yet so sophisticated is it.soperation thut selectivity
of adjacent channels is completely unaffected.
In urban locationswhere the FM-5's extremesensitivitv
could have been a handicap, speciai care was taken in thl
design of the front end to accommodateextremely powerlul
signals without encroaching on adjacent weakei channels.
The IM-5's suppression of spurious responses (cross_
niodulation) is notable among solid state tuners. Generous
tolerance of overmodulation (
an al l-too-conrmontrroadcast-
ing fault) yields low distortion signals in instances where
others suffer.

Smooth flywheel action, a long uniformiv r.peceil dial,
and the most accessible and easiest to install rlill stringing
system ever, make the FM-5 a joy to use, and a tr..eeze
to
construct. Only those who have built nther luners with
similar dials can fully appreciate the latter.
The IF section utilizes two 4-pole cerarnic filters for
the optimum combination of alignment accuracy ancl s&r-
bility, phase integrity and effecfive seler:tivity. .I'he ir]eal

Lead-ln Wire
There are three basic criteria in selecting the appropriate
lead-in: impedance matching (to avoid unneces-sary signal
loss), signal loss characteristic (expressed in db/10o feet).
and shielding, or intrinsic resistance to interference.
There are two impedances of FM systems: 72 (or 7i)
ohms, and 300 ohms. The FM-5 provides for direct con-
nection of either. The majority of antennae are designed
for 300 ohm systems, but matching transfornlers, or baluns,
may be used to convert from one antenna impedance to
the other lead,in impedance with minimum signal loss.
There are several types of 300 ohm lead-in, but only one
72 ohm in comnron use-coaxial shielded RG-S9U. F'or
extrenrely long runs, RG-llU is a lower loss equivalent.
R(; 59tI is used in many apartment house distribution
systems and cable TV systems for it has relatively low
signal loss and good life expectancy and very good shicld-
ing. It is fairly expensive and somewhat bulky, and the
instirllation of t:onnectors is a nuisance, but it is still pre-
ferred b,v nlan\: inskrllers where interfcrencc, such as from
rnotor vehicles, is a problem.
'I'hr lnost lropular 300 ohnr lead-in is the ll:rt "ribbon"
twinlead. It is the least exJrensive,
has fairly low signal
loss (
at least wlren it is new ), and low bulk, so it can be
nrn ( tlrough with adverse effect on signal ) under carpets and
along walls with minimum unsightliness. Since it has no
shielcling, inskrllers try to avoid horiz.ontal runs as much as
possible, skr.y away from nretal surfaces like gutters and
downspouts, nnd twist it atnut once ear:h foot to reduce
inlerrft:rence pickup. T'winlead is more strbject than nrost to
the effects of weather, and it should be replaced aftcr about
3 years in most localitres.
In fringe areas where maximum signal transmission is
irnportant, a special open wire 300 ohm twinlead uses
plastic spacers to supyrort the two conductors with a mini-
mum of loss. It, too, has no shielding capability, and is
affected by the elernents. Weather resistance has been
irnprovcd with sorne types of oval twinlead, both hollow
and foam-filled, at the expense of considererble bulk and
increased cost-
The most recent variation is shielded 300 ohm cable. It
is the most expensive, with rnoderate signal loss, and is
the bulkiest of all. It is weil shielded and has good life
expectancy, so it is preferred by manv installers in urban
areas.
The right choice of antenna and lead-in can take maxi-
mum advantage of the FM-5's superior performance. The
antenna system is a substantiallv greater factor than any
tuner design characteristic in achieving good reception of
weak signals. The Dynatuner's frorrl. end has such low
noise that it is doubtful if any fr,rrmof ltorlster or antenna
ampiifier can provide a signal with ari.ulistcnilble improve-
ment over that directl-y from the anteluri.r.
The critical listener nray werll spend as much for the
antenna system as for the FM-5, but such a combination
will accornplish far more than :r rurlitnenlery atrtenna at-
tached to tuners several times the cost of thc Fi\,I-5.

I'he power transformer supplierd in tlie I.NI-S may be
connected for a 24Ovolt A(l lint-'as nell as ior the standard
720 volt AC line, which is how the lransfornrer is wired
unless this manual is stampecl "240 volt". 'l.he transformer
has dual primary windings- 'I'hey are conntcterl in parallel
for 120 volts, and in series for 240 volts. 'l.hc notes to
steps 93 and 94 of the wiring instructions, arrd tire diagram
on the pictorial insert dctail the 240 volt conrrcctions.
The 14o

or 240 ua*u-se.
The F'M-5 is designed for use with either 50 Hz or 60 Hz
current. Variations of line voltage up to 10.1,fronr nominal
value will not affect performance-
I'he standard 75 yrsec

in the Unil.ed States is used in nrany other countries as
well. If -your location us€srttre altcrnal.ive iit) lrsec de-em-
phasis (common in Europe), capacitors C-64 and C-65
on the PC-26 board should each be chansed to .fi)56 mfd.
ASSEMBTY
INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly of the FM-5 is exceptionally sinrple when
compared to other kits. The preassembled etched circuit
boards have savedyou much of the work, and the assembly
that remains is arranged in an open, uncluttered layout
that makes wiring quick and easy. The construction lime
will be only a few hours, but it is best to work slowl,y and
carefully rather than worry about the time.
Construction will be greatly simplified if you have some-
one help you by reading the steps aloud, selecting the
required parts, and preparing the necessary wire lengths
as you proceed.
When you unpack your kit, check ofi the components
agairut the parts list at the back of the manual. you can
r4entify unfamiliar parts by matching them to the pictorial
diagram or photograph.
-, Have the proper tools at hand before starting assembly.
You will need a pencil-t5pe soldering iron of J0- to 60-watt
rating with a small tip, long nosed pliers, diagonal cutting
8
pliers, a medium-sized screwdriver, and 6A/4O rosin core
sokler not larger than Ytc" diameter. You will also find a
damp spongeor cloth helpful lo wipcrthe ti1; uf the iron
clean periodically. An inexpensive wire stripping tool is
helpful, but somepeople prefer a single-cdged
razor blade
for removing the insulation.
A goodsolder connection doesnot require a lrtrgeamount
of solder around the joint. A well-made connection looks
smooth and shiny because
the solder floutsinto the joint
when both parts arehot enough.
There are four stepsto making a gond solder cor-rnection:
l. Make a good mechanical connection.
2. Heat both parts r..'iththe tip of the iron rztthe junction.
3. Apply solder to the junction untii it melts and flows.
4. Allow the connection to cool undisturbed.
ALL SOLDERING MUST BII DOI{E WI'TH A
GOOD GRADE OF ROSIN CORE SOI,DER.

SERVICE
ATIGNMENT
(FOR
QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL
WITH THEPROPER
LQUIPMENT
ONLY)
There is no provision for any home alignment of the
FM-s, and under no circumstances should any adjust-
ments be made without the following service equipment:
1. Sound Technology 10O0A FM alignment generator, or
the equivalent, such as a Measurements Corporation
Model 88 or 210,4.generator, plus a suitable multiplex
generator with adjustable pilot level, and an accurate 67
kHz oscillator.
2. Oscilloscope-Hewlett Packard 130C or equivalent with
its Diode Probe and a 10:1 Probe.
3. AC voltmeter with rnrs scale.
4. DC voltmeter, with 0.5volt or less
full scale;l0 megohms
input impedance.
5. Intermodulation Analyzer.
Operate both the tuner and the instruments for at least
20 minutes prior to alignment"
lF Alignment
Locirte a dial settirrg between slations. Switr:h the tuner
to NIONO, Dynatune OIrF, and maximum volurne. Tune
t.he gerrerator to the same frequency with 2O0kllz devia-
tion and :r 3fiX) 1r.v
output. Cotrnect the diode probe to
the scope vertical input, with a sensitivity of l0 mv/cm.
Set the scope's horizontal extcrnal sensitivity for I v/cm,
with the swccl) I"external" or "horizontal" ) output of the
generalor connectr:dto the horizontal input.
