Using the optional external
antennas
For better reception of SW (short wave), MW (medium wave) and LW
(long wave) broadcasts, use the optional wide range antenna AN-102 or
SW active antenna AN-LP1.
Installation
• Do not place the radio or antenna near fluorescent lighting, televisions,
telephones, computers, etc., as this may cause noises to be heard.
• Install the external antenna as far away as possible from roads.
• For details concerning the external antenna, see the instruction manual
supplied with the antenna.
• When using the external antenna, make sure that the telescopic
antenna is fully retracted.
Notes
• Since it is necessary to select the frequency using the antenna controller
for SW active antenna AN-LP1, you may not obtain the best
performance when operating the memory scan function of the radio
with AN-LP1 connected.
• Do not connect external antennas other than those recommended to
the AM EXT ANT jack. This jack outputs DC voltage for antenna
power supply.
• Never touch the wire of the external antenna during a thunderstorm.
Furthermore, immediately disconnect the AC power adaptor from the
radio when operating on house current.
Tuning in with AN-102
When tuning in to SW broadcasts
Connect the antenna controller output jack and the AM EXT
ANT (AM external antenna input) jack of the unit with the
connecting cord (supplied with AN-102).
When tuning in to MW/LW broadcasts
