Abstract

See full text

Antenna coupling components including a coil and a static discharge resistor are mounted on a separate printed circuit board within a tuner that is positioned by means of projecting tabs on each end so as to self-center the coil with the inductor. A first tab extends through an aperture in the tuner wall and carries foil patterns for connecting an antenna to the coil and one end of the resistor. The other tab is secured to a slot in an internal shield to provide mechanical support for the board, electrical connection to ground for the other end of the resistor and which facilitates lateral movement of the coil during assembly. A connector block, fixed to the outside of the tuner enclosure, provides mechanical support and electrical insulation for the first tab and additionally provides electrical connection to a pair of antenna terminals and a right angle bend in the antenna circuit.
