OUTPUT CONNECTIONS
There are three sets of outputs on the left
half of the back panel. (See Figure 19.) One
pair is marked MAIN. The second pair is
marked TAPE. The third is a single jack
marked L+R OUTPUT.
The MAIN output connects to power
amplifiers (Figure 19). The TAPE output
feeds a tape recorder.
The MAIN jacks are fed from cathode
followers. Longer cables than are normally
supplied can be connected between the
MX110 and the amplifiers. The length of the
cable is limited by the capacity of the cable.
The total capacity must not exceed 1000
mmf. For instance: cables with a capacity
of 25 mmf per foot may be 40 feet long; 13.5
mmf per foot cable may be 75 feet long. The
input impedance of the amplifiers should be
100,000 ohms or greater.
The TAPE output is fed from a cathode
follower. The program material fed out of the
TAPE output is not affected by these front
panel controls: VOLUME control, BASS con-
trols, LF and HF filter switches, BALANCE
control, LOUD switch, TAPE MONITOR switch,
PHASE switch, TREBLE controls, and MODE
SELECTOR switch.
The program material fed out of the
TAPE output is affected by these front
panel controls: INPUT SELECTOR switch,
and in the FM or MPX positions of the INPUT
SELECTOR, the MUTING switch and TUNING
control.
The input impedance of the tape recorder
should be 100,000 ohms or greater.
A jack marked L+R OUTPUT is located
below the GND screw.
A monophonic signal can be distributed to
other rooms by connecting another power
amplifier to the jack marked L+R. The cable
connecting this output to the amplifier
should not have a capacity of more than
1000 mmf. The input impedance of the
power amplifier connecting to this output
should not be less than 150,000ohms(150K).

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
Satisfactory MPX stereo requires about
10 times as much signal from the antenna.
Monophonic installations that are satis-
factory on an indoor antenna may require
the use of an outdoor antenna for equivalent
results.
With the MX110 one of the three antenna
systems can be used: (1) the indoor dipole
supplied with the MX110, (2) an outdoor
FM antenna, or 3 a VHF-TV antenna. In
fringe areas best results will probably be
obtained with the use of an outdoor FM
antenna. In many areas the indoor dipole
antenna may be satisfactory. The use of a
VHF-TV antenna is also effective in many
installations. Make a choice after consulting
the book on antennas titled "Themes and
Variations" included with MX110.
