CONNECTION OF THE ANTENNA AND THE GROUND CABLE

AM/FM ANTENNA

AM/FM broadcasting is weakened by hills and valleys, around tall buildings and in iron-reinforced buildings.

INSTALLATION OF FM ANTENNA USING 300 OHM TWIN LEAD

Connect the leads from the antenna of the terminals marked 300 ohm. Rotate antenna to direction of strongest reception. (Fig. 1-1)

INSTALLATION OF AM/FM ANTENNA USING COAXIAL CABLE (75 OHM)

Connect center conductor to 75 ohm terminal and shield to GND.

INDOOR ANTENNA

In regions where AM/FM broadcasting is heard comparatively well due to the near proximity of stations, you can receive broadcasting of good quality by using a T-type (FM dipole) antenna. Mount the antenna at the best location for reception after connecting it to the terminals marked 300 ohm. (Fig. 1-1)

7. SCAN/UP MONITOR (SEEK)

When SCAN/UP button is pressed, the frequency increases by one channel step with station detection.

If a valid signal is detected, the current frequency blinks every 0.5 sec for 5 seconds.

The scan/up will automatically continue until the scanning function is released. the tuner will remain at the selected frequency.

8. MEMORY SWITCH

1) Directly accesses the preprogrammed station within the selected frequency band.

2) Performs preset memory read/write functions:

- WRITE function: If one of the M2-M3 buttons are pressed for more than 2 seconds, the current frequency will be stored to corresponding memory area.

- When saving a station, the tuner will mute for 0.5 seconds.

- READ function: If one of the M2-M3 buttons are pressed for less than 2

2). Auto store memory function descriptions

During SEEK UP operation with station detection, if any station is detected, then this detected station is automatically stored to the corresponding preset memory area in regular frequency.

- Current receiving frequency is preset memory: From current channel to M6.

- Current receiving frequency is not preset memory: From M1 to M6.

- During auto store memory, output signals are muted and flashing channel number(1Hz, duty) till finished this function.

- When this operation is finished, it performs preset memory scan operation for one time.
