Connecting antennas
Connecting an FM outdoor antenna
Make sure lo follow the general rules given below:
• Keep the antenna away from noise sources (neon signs, busy
roads, etc.).
• It is dangerous to put the antenna close to power lines. Keep it
well away from power lines, transformers, etc.
Connecting an AM outdoor antenna
If reception is poor with the indoor AM antenna, stretch out the
outdoor antenna (16 feet (5 meters) or more) above a window or
outside.
• Keep the indoor AM loop antenna connected. Do not remove it.
Note:
If you are using the TX-SR701/701E/601/601E worldwide model in
a region where AM frequencies are delineated by 10-kHz steps, be
sure to set the “AM Frequency Step” Setup setting accordingly (see
page 55).
Directional linkage
Do not use the same antenna for both FM and TV (or VCR)
reception since the FM and TV (or VCR) signals can interfere with
each other. If you must use a common FM/fV (or VCR) antenna,
use a directional linkage type splitter.
