the environmental temperature range listed in the table of specifications.

Antenna Orientation

Once your antennas have been connected it may be necessary to orient the AM loop

antenna so the flat surface of the loop antenna faces the metropolitan area from

which the broadcast signals originate. This is particularly necessary when signals

are weak. If you are not aware of the source or direction of the signals to which you

will listen, simply rotate the loop antenna in clear space for maximum signal

strength. The supplied antenna has a folding stand that allows you to place the

antenna on a flat surface.

The recommended FM antenna is an outdoor type commonly available in

electronics stores. Use of the supplied indoor FM antenna is recommended only if

you cannot use an outdoor antenna. Outdoor antennas are particularly important in

rural areas, some distance from FM radio signal sources. The FM antenna supplied

with your tuner is a T-type and it should be stretched horizontally in space that is as

clear as possible. Some reorientation may be necessary if signals in your area are

weak. Best results can usually be achieved if the length of the antenna faces the

metropolitan area from which the FM signals you wish to receive originate. The

supplied antenna has a fitting at its end that will enable you to fasten it in place.

The following antennas are supplied with the ATC-AMFM2:
