CONNECTIONS Connecting the Antennas Both AM and FM indoor antennas are included with this unit. In general, these antennas should provide sufficient signal strength.

Connect each antenna correctly to the designated terminals. s Indoor FM antenna (included) Indoor FM antenna Firmly insert the connector into the FM ANT terminal.
