33Chapter One : Connecting Your DevicesConnectionsConnecting the AntennasAM Loop AntennaFM 75ΩANTENNA GND AMYour new receiver comes with an AM loop antenna for AMradio reception. To connect the AM antenna:1. Insert the antenna loop into the base and position theloop.2. Open the receiver’s antenna terminal levers.3. Insert the antenna’s wires into the terminal as shownabove.4. Close the antenna terminal levers to lock the wires inplace.5. Adjust the antenna loop as necessary to improve recep-tion.To prevent hum interference, keep the AM antenna wiresaway from speaker wires, AC power cords, the TV chassis,and the receiver.FM Indoor AntennaFM 75ΩANTENNA GND AMYour new receiver also comes with an FM indoor antennafor FM radio reception. To connect the FM antenna:1. Attach the antenna sheath to the pole in the center ofthe receiver’s FM antenna jack, as shown above. Whenyou attach the sheath for the first time, you may need toexert quite a bit of pressure.2. Adjust the antenna as necessary to improve reception.3. Tack the looped end of the antenna in the location thatprovides the best reception.FM Outdoor AntennaFM 75ΩANTENNA GND AMKenwood recommends a permanently installed outdoor FMantenna for best FM reception. To connect an outdoor FMantenna:1. Connect the antenna wire to a standard, commerciallyavailable antenna adapter as shown above.2. Connect the adapter to the receiver’s FM antenna jack.RF Remote Antenna(VR-4090 and VR-4080 only)RF REMOTE ANTENNASYSTEMCONTROLSL 16TEXTThe Remote Control unit for the VR-4090/VR-4080 incor-porates the RF transmission function. To make sure receiv-ing the RF remote signal, connect the provided RF RemoteAntenna as described below.1. Insert the jack of the provided RF Remote Antenna intothe receiver’s RF REMOTE ANTENNA jack.2. Distribute the antenna wire vertically and fix it.Distribute the antenna away from the metallic panel.What if I Have Cable Radio?If you have cable radio, contact your cable provider for as-sistance with connecting to the VR-4090/VR-4080/KRF-V7773D.
