Making Connections

With Your New AM Advantage

Intended for AM use ONLY.  Most receivers and radios
have external AM antenna terminals. If your receiver or
radio does NOT have these terminals, you cannot connect
the antenna and it must be used in Wireless Operation
(see Wireless Operation on the following page).

AM Advantage Hook-Up & Tuning:

Your new AM Advantage can improve your AM 
reception dramatically!    
1. Connect the supplied wire’s jack into the port located

on the back of the antenna. 

See Figure 1.  

2. Locate the set of terminals for an external AM antenna

on the back of your radio or receiver.  (These terminals
can be either two screws or two push-buttons.)

3. Simply insert the exposed wire leads into the

terminals. 

See Figure 2

.  

4. Tune in the AM station you wish to listen to on your radio.

5. Turn the dial on the AM Advantage to approximately 

the same frequency. Improved reception performance
should be noted. 

See Figure 3.
