Important
If you connect an outdoor antenna, ground it against
lightning. To prevent a gas explosion, do not connect
the ground wire to a gas pipe.
Note
To prevent noise pickup, keep the AM loop antenna away
from the receiver and TV.
z If you have poor AM reception
Connect a 20 to 50 ft. insulated wire (not supplied) to
the ANTENNA AM terminal in addition to the AM loop
antenna. Try to extend the wire outdoors and keep it
horizontal.
