I wanted to go home to make sure that my marbles were intact.
It doesn't have the loop because they came up with a better way.

A normal push of the antenna button selects either the antenna
#1 or #2 connector on the back. Pushing the button for 2 seconds
continually keeps the same transmit antenna but switches to the
RCA jack on the back as the source for the receive antenna.
So, 4 options are available: 1/1, 2/2, 1/R, 2/R (only one "R"
receive antenna input). The manual incorrectly identifies the
jack for the receive antenna. The back panel labeling was correct.
