The Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop Antenna requires it's own
built-in {Set-of-Batteries} Battery Power to Opperate. The Radio
simply supplies a small 'sensing' Voltage to only "Switch" the AN-LP1
On-and-Off; and nothing more.

NOTE - This Switching Voltage from the Radio does NOT supply the needed
Power to actually Power the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop Antenna.


TESTING :

# 1. Take the Batteries out of the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop
Antenna and plug the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop Antenna into the
Sony ICF-SW7600GR AM/FM Shortwave Radio. Turn the Radio On-and-Off and
find-out for yourself.

Disconnect - Un-plug the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop Antenna from
the Sony ICF-
SW7600GR AM/FM Shortwave Radio.

# 2. Then put the Batteries back-in the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave
Loop Antenna
and plug the Sony AN-LP1 Active Shortwave Loop Antenna into the Sony
ICF-SW7600GR AM/FM Shortwave Radio. Again turn the Radio On-and-Off
and find-out for yourself.
