This section explains how to connect the supplied indoor FM antenna and AM loop antenna, and how to connect commercially available outdoor FM and AM antennas. 

The receiver won’t pick up any radio signals without an antenna connected, so you must connect the antenna to use the tuner.

## Connecting the Indoor FM Antenna 

The supplied indoor FM antenna is for indoor use only. 

1 Attach the FM antenna, as shown. 

2 Use thumbtacks or something similar to fix the FM antenna into position. 

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor FM antenna, try a commercially available outdoor FM antenna instead (see page 18).

Once the receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an FM radio station and adjust the position of the FM antenna to achieve the best possible reception.

## ! Caution 

Be careful that you don’t injure yourself when using thumbtacks. 

## Connecting the AM Loop Antenna 

The supplied indoor AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. 

1 Assemble the AM loop antenna, inserting the tabs into the base, as shown. 

2 Connect both wires of the AM loop antenna to the AM push terminals, as shown. 

If you cannot achieve good reception with the supplied indoor AM loop antenna, try using it with a commercially available outdoor AM antenna (see page 18).

(The antenna’s wires are not polarity sensitive, so they can be connected either way around). Make sure that the wires are attached securely and that the push terminals are gripping the bare wires, not the insulation.

Once the receiver is ready for use, you’ll need to tune into an AM radio station and adjust the position of the AM antenna to achieve the best possible reception. 

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the receiver, TV, speaker cables, and power cords.
