To connect an outdoor AM (LW/MW) antenna

When reception is poor, connect a single vinyl-covered wire to the AM EXT terminal and extend it horizontally. (The AM (LW/MW) loop antenna must remain connected.)

For better reception of both FM and AM (LW/MW)

Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals and connecting cords.

Keep the antennas away from metallic parts of the unit, connecting cords, and the AC power cord.
