FM RECEIVING ANTENNA
The electric wave of FM broadcasting is weakening in hills
and valleys, around buildings and in iron-reinforced buildings.
INSTALLATION OF ANTENNA EXCLUSIVELY FOR FM
Listening to the broadcasting, fix the antenna after
deciding the location and the direction so that the
reception may be optimized.
I NSTALLATION OF ANTENNA USING THE COAXIAL CABLE
Noisy reception may occur in built-up areas and factory
sites as well as around power cables. This may be the
case even when an antenna is used exclusively for FM. In
these regions, install the antenna using 75Ωcoaxial cable.
INDOOR ANTENNA
In the regions where FM broadcasting is heard comparatively
well due to the near distance to the station or wooden
structure, you can receive broadcasting of good quality by
using T-type antenna.(using matching trans:300Ω/75Ω).
FM AMCOM

AM LEAD ANTENNA
Fix one end of a six to eight metre length of vinyl-coated
single cable to the AM terminal and the other end to a
high place like a wall.
AM OUTDOOR ANTENNA
Install the vinyl-coated cable to an outdoor place if the
AM reception is not good enough.
AM LOOP ANTENNA
Connecting the feeder of the loop antenna of the
terminal of 300Ω.
Listening to the broadcasting, fix it after deciding the
location and the direction so that the receipt condition
may be optimum.
