Aerial Hookups

Overview

This section describes how to connect AM and FM
aerials to the receiver. If you want to receive radio
broadcasts with the receiver, complete these
connections first, then go to the following pages.
For specific locations of the terminals, see the
illustration below.

What aerials will I need?

If you have poor AM reception

Connect a 6 to 15-meter (20 to 50 ft.) insulated wire (not
supplied) to the AM aerial terminal in addition to the
AM loop aerial. Try to extend the wire outdoors and
keep it horizontal.

Connecting a ground wire

If you connect the receiver to an outdoor aerial, ground
it against lightning as shown in the illustration in the
left column. To prevent a gas explosion, do not connect
the ground wire to a gas pipe.

Where do I go next?

If you want to connect other components, go on to the next
section. If you’re only planning to use the receiver to listen
to the radio, go to “Speaker System Hookups” on page 7.
