ANTENNA CONNECTIONS
A convenient flexible indoor FM dipole (300 ohm) antenna is supplied
with the MAC 1500. This antenna is easy to install. It is suitable for good
FM reception in high signal areas.
Connect the two leads of the dipole antenna to the two terminals marked
\\300" on the back panel of the MAC 1500.
The flexibility of the thick flat wire lets you easily locate the dipole behind
the equipment. Open the dipole into a \\T." Extend the arms as straight
as possible. The dipole antenna is somewhat directional. It should be
positioned for best reception of the desired stations.

AC OUTLETS
There are two BLACK AC outlets and
one RED AC outlet. The power to the
black AC outlets is controlled by the
front panel switch. Use these outlets
for accessories such as q tape re-
corder. The red receptacle is on at all
times and is used for a turntable or
record changer. The turntable is pro-
tected by this arrangement. It is nec-
essary to turn off the turntable or rec-
ord changer by its own AC switch.
Connect the AC cord from your record
player to the RED outlet.

IMPORTANT
Keep the dipole away from large metal
objects or surfaces. They interfere with
the efficiency of the antenna.
This control determines the strength of
signal necessary for a station to be heard
with the tuner in the muting position. The
muting threshold is carefully adjusted to
optimum at the factory using precision
test instruments.Casual adjustment of the
muting threshold is not recommended.

OUTDOOR FM ANTENNA
75 OHM ANTENNA
An outdoor FM antenna is recommended.
It will give you the best reception under
all conditions. In fringe areas, a highly
directional antenna used with a rotator
will give the finest possible FM reception.
Rotate the antenna until it points in the
direction of the station or until it receives
the best possible signal.
An unbalanced 75 ohm FM antenna can
be used with the MAC 1500. Use the two
terminals marked 75.
