Connecting the included antennas
Connecting the FM indoor antenna:
The FM indoor antenna is for indoor use only. During use, extend
the antenna and adjust its orientation until the clearest signal is
received. Fix it with push pins or similar items in the position that
will cause the least amount of distortion.
If the reception is not very clear with the attached FM indoor
antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
Connecting the AM loop antenna:
The AM loop antenna is for indoor use only. Set it in the direction
and position where you receive the clearest sound. Put it as far away
as possible
from the TX-SR701/701E/601/60IE, televisions,
speaker cables, and power cords.
If the reception is not very clear with the attached AM indoor
antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended.
