| HINTS FOR BETTER RECEPTION _
Precaution regarding installation position of
shown in the drawing below, it may be adversely affect-
ed during playback. If possible, it is better to install it in
the '8 position.
[EXTERNAL
FM ANTENNA
The main advantage of FM over AM is the quality of the
broadcast signal. In order to benefit fully from the high
signal quality of FM broadcasts, it is recommended that
a special-purpose FM antenna be installed. In weak sig-
nal areas, a multi-element (3-element, 5-element, 7-ele-
ment) antenna should be used.
GROUNDING _
aS
Grounding is recommended if reception of FM programs
is impaired by noise. To ground, connect a thick polyvi-
nyl-insulated wire to the GND terminal and attach the
other end to a metal water pipe or grounding bar or wind
it around a copper plate and bury it.
NOTE:
Never connect a wire to a gas pipe for grounding since sparks
may ignite the gas.
EXTERNAL AM ANTENNA
If it is not possible to obtain adequate AM reception even
by changing the orientation of the AM loop antenna, a
separate indoor antenna or an outdoor antenna should
be installed,
INDOOR AM ANTENNA
Use a vinyl-insulated wire 5 to 6 meters long (15 to 18
feet) and connect one end to the AM antenna terminal
and affix the other end to the wall or ceiling, as high as
possible.
NOTE:
Do not detach the AM loop antenna when using an indoor or an
outdoor AM antenna.
OUTDOOR
AM ANTENNA
If reception quality is not improved
sufficiently even
when an indoor antenna is used, a vinyl-insulated wire
should be installed outside and fixed in place.
