For
AM
reception
of
360
kHz
to
2,143kHz,
the
built-in
ferrite
bar
antenna
also
operates.
Since
this
antenna
is
directional,
lay
the
set
down
and
rotate
it
to
find
the
optimum
position.
@
If
there
is
a
fluorescent
lamp
just
above
the
set
and
reception
is
noisy,
incline
and
shorten
the
Telescopic
Antenna.
>
FOR FM RECEPTION
Pull
out
the
Telescopic
Antenna
and
adjust
its
length,

NOTES
@
If
reception
is
unsatisfactory
with
the
Telescopic
Antenna
or
the
built-in
ferrite
bar
antenna,
connect
an
external
antenna.
When
us-
ing
an
external
antenna,
retract
the
Telescopic
