About Your AM/FM Pi
Remember that no antenna can receive a radio signal that
isn’t there. When a usable radio signal is present, your
AM/FM Pi will improve AM and FM reception.
Note: Generally, a practical limit to radio reception is 40-
50 miles from the broadcast transmitter depending on
the terrain.
Gain Control Knob:
Located on the back of the AM/FM Pi is the gain control
knob. The gain control is the mechanism that either
increases or decreases the antenna’s amplifier intensity.
The further away you are from the radio signal, the more
you increase the gain. If you are very close to the radio
signal, lowering the gain may have a greater effect.
