About the Terk "Q"

The Q's AM wing swings back 90 degrees to prevent any interference between the separate AM and FM antenna elements. FM gain is achieved through active amplification. AM gain, fixed at +15 dB, is achieved through a passive (non-amplified) antenna element.
Power up your radio reception! With two selectable FM modes (wideband and narrowband) Terk's Q lets you lock in on frequencies perfectly! For strong stations, use its wideband mode to enhance reception of all broadcasts in a 360-degree range. For weak stations, the narrowband mode employs Terk's "Pin-Dot Pre-Tuning" circuitry to zero in on a precise frequency: Once you've matched the frequency, simply adjust its low-noise amplifier (-20 to +44 dB gain) for optimum signal strength.

Features

AM Gain: The Terk Q (AF-1) antenna provides a +15dB gain for AM, however, the signal is not boosted or amplified.

FM Gain: The antenna's gain control for FM signals can be adjusted from -20dB to +44dB. The further away from the radio signal, the more you should increase the gain. If you are close to a radio signal, you should decrease the gain to reduce distortion.

Tuning Modes: The antenna has two tuning modes:

  • Wide Band: Wide band tuning works best in most situations. The 8 LEDs on the font panel will turn from green to red as the gain is increased. The gain should be set to where there is the least amount of noise.
  • Narrow Band: For tuning to a specific station, you should switch to Narrow Band tuning with its Pin-Dot Pre-Tuning feature. The gain control and the LEDs will guide you to find the best signal possible. The left-most LEDs represent the lower end of the dial (88 MHz), while the LEDs on the right represent the upper end of the dial (108 MHz).
