INSTALLATION
LOCATION
The tuner should be placed as close to your other components as is convenient.
Do not locate the tuner in direct sunlight, near radiators or other sources of
heat. Locations having high humidity or excessive dust should be avoided if
at all possible. If you plan to install the tuner in any type of cabinet or
enclosure, be sure to allow for adequateventilation. To insure best performance,
take the time to prepare a location that is sturdy enough to support the tuner
and its associated components.
ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT
Any additional audio equipment that you may wish to purchase shol-tld be of
the same high quality as this tuner. The Philips 673 is compatible with other
products from Philips High Fidelity Laboratories as well as most other high
quality component equipment.
TUNER CONNECTION
AMPLIFIER
Two pairs of audio output terminals, variable and fixed, are provided on the
rear of the tuner. Connect the variable output terminals to the Tuner or Aux
inputs of the amplifier using the audio cable which is supplied. ' T he signal
level from thevariable terminals is controlled by thetwo level controls on the
front of the tuner. The Fixed output terminals may be connected to the Line
Input terminals of a tape deck. Since the signal level from the Fixed output
terminals cannot be adjusted at the tuner, this must be done with the record
level controls of the tape deck.
MULTIPATH
The M~tltipath terminals may be connected to the horizontal and vertical
inputs of an oscilloscope for the purpose of.visually monitoring multipath
distortion. 'This can aid you in positioning the FM antenna for minimum
multipath and maximum signal strength. When operating the oscilloscope,
follow the instruction manual supplied with it.
FM DETECTOR OUTPUT
An FM detector output is available on the back panel, ready for use when 4
channel FM is perfected.
FM ANTENNA
A folded dopole FM antenna has been provided with this tuner. To connect
this antenna, loosen the two 300 ohm antenna screws, slip the "u" shaped
lugs of the antenna under the screws and tighten them securely. The crossbar
of the antenna shol-~ld be mounted flat and horizontally on the wall, along the
back edge of a shelf or other convenient location. This antenna is directional;
therefore, discovering the best location may require some experimentation.
Although this antenna should be adequate for reception of local stations, you
may wish to install an outdoor FM antenna.
Terminals have been provided for the connection of 75 ohm cable. This type
of antenna cable may be connected by stripping the insulation from one end
