Illustration: Rear view.wire to receiver and binding posts (labeled) SPECIFICATIONS Reception AM Operating Band 530–1700 kHz Antenna Cable Length 3 Feet (0.91 m) Slowly move the antenna around your AM radio and place it in the spot where you receive the clearest sound. Do not try to rotate the tuner farther in the same direction after it stops. Then connect both of the antenna cable’s wires to the radio’s AM antenna terminals.Ĭaution: The tuner’s range of movement is limited in each direction. To connect the antenna directly to an AM radio, connect the supplied antenna cable’s 1/8-inch (3.5-mm) plug to the jack on the back of the antenna. PREPARATION You can connect the antenna directly to your AM radio or simply place the antenna next to the radio. This greatly reduces the antenna’s ability to receive signals. (Higher frequencies are noticeably affected by obstructions.) Do not place the antenna near any metal surface such as a refrigerator, a metal door or wall, or a water pipe hidden behind a wall. For the best results, make sure the antenna is away from obstructions such as metal cabinets or bookshelves.

(The antenna’s tuner has frequency markings similar to your radio’s tuner).
Rotate the antenna’s tuner to the same frequency. Turn on your AM radio and tune it to the desired station (frequency). Great for areas where AM radio reception is weak, the antenna’s circuitry works with your AM radio’s built-in antenna to allow quality reception of strong signals and improved reception of weak signals. Indoor AM Loop Antenna Your RadioShack Indoor AM Loop Antenna helps any AM radio with a built-in antenna receive AM radio stations more clearly in most listening locations.
