Connecting antennas

Connect the AM loop antenna and the FM wire antenna

as shown below. To improve reception and sound

quality, connect external antennas (see Using external

antennas below).

1

Push open the tabs, then insert one wire

fully into each terminal, then release the
tabs to secure the AM antenna wires.

2

Fix the AM loop antenna to the attached

stand.

To fix the stand to the antenna, bend in the direction

indicated by the arrow then clip the loop onto the stand.

3

Place the AM antenna on a flat surface

and in a direction giving the best reception.

4

Connect the FM wire antenna into the

FM antenna socket.

For best results, extend the FM antenna fully and fix to a

wall or door frame. Don’t drape loosely or leave coiled

up.

Using external antennas

To improve FM reception

Use a PAL connector (not supplied) to connect an

external FM antenna.

To improve AM reception

Connect a 5 m to 6 m length of vinyl-coated wire to the

AM antenna terminal without disconnecting the

supplied AM loop antenna.
For the best possible reception, suspend horizontally

outdoors.
