Hints for Better Reception
FM - Make sure that the FM Lead Wire Antenna is extended to its full length. You may have to vary the
direction of the FM lead Wire Antenna to find the strongest signal for each FM station.
AM - The AM ferrite bar antenna is located inside the unit. It may be necessary to turn the unit slightly so
that the internal antenna is pointing in the direction of the AM transmitter. You may have to experiment to
find the position that provides the strongest reception for each of your favorite AM stations.
