Common Questions
Q: My TERK antenna does not work with my boom box. What can I do?
A: You can only use a TERK antenna on a system where there is an
input for an external antenna. Some portable boom box radios
do not have such an input.
Q: Can I extend the wire on my FM antenna to place it on a window
sill or somewhere away from my receiver?
A: You can extend the wire with RG-59 cable and a two-way “F”
connector. These items are available at any electronics store.
Q: When I touch the antenna, it works better. How come?
A: When you touch the antenna, and your feet are touching the
ground, you are acting as a giant antenna. You can only
accurately judge how the antenna is working when you let it go.
