ENGLISH

Mounting the Antenna

The antenna mounting base and arm give you ﬂexibility in mounting the

antenna.The antenna can be mounted:

•To a surface, such as a rooftop, eaves, siding, or rafters in an

attic

-OR-

•To a standard mast (not included)

WARNING: Never hang anything from the antenna; never attach foreign

objects to the antenna.

NOTES: Do not install the antenna on any metal surface, including

aluminum siding. Mounting on a metal surface will seriously degrade

reception quality.

In most cases, the antenna provides the best performance when mounted

outdoors in a high location (such as on the roof or high up on the side of

your house). The antenna can also be mounted in an attic or indoors.

Finding the Right Location

Before you mount the antenna, consider the following factors in reception

performance:

• The antenna performs best when mounted vertically

• The antenna should be mounted on the side of your house that faces

most of your local broadcast towers. Visit www.antennaweb.org to see

the locations of your local broadcast towers.

• The higher the elevation of the antenna, the better the reception

performance will be.

ENGLISH

Mounting to a Surface

1. Mount the base to the surface.

Find the four wood screws included in this package. Using these

screws, attach the base to the surface as shown here.

If you’re mounting to concrete, brick, or drywall...

You’ll need to use the anchors included in this package. Here’s how to

install them:

• Place the antenna base against the concrete where you want to

mount the antenna. Make sure it’s level.

• Mark the surface through the holes in the base where you’re

going to mount the antenna.

• Set the base aside and drill a 0.1575” pilot hole at each marked

location. Remove any excess dust from the holes.

• Insert a concrete anchor into each hole so that it is ﬂush with the

concrete surface.You can use a hammer to gently tap the anchors

into place if necessary.

• Place the antenna base back against the concrete surface and

secure it using the four wood screws provided. Do not overtighten

these screws.

2. Attach the arm to the base.

Find one of the bolts included in this package.

First, set the bolt in the base’s mounting well.Then position the arm

over the other side of the well.Tighten the bolt to attach the arm to the

base.

3. Attach the antenna to the arm.

Find the other bolt included in this package.

First, set the bolt in the antenna’s mounting well.Then position the

arm over the other side of the well.Tighten the bolt to attach the arm

to the antenna.

ENGLISH

1. If you’re using the provided coaxial cable,

thread it through one of the U-bolts.

Find the coaxial cable and one of the U-bolts

included in this package.Thread the coaxial cable

through the U-bolt as shown here.

IMPORTANT: If you’re not using the coaxial cable that came with this

antenna, skip step 1.

4. Connect the coaxial cable to the antenna.

Connect the coaxial cable to the F-connector on the bottom of the

antenna. Cover the connector with the cable’s attached weather boot.

To adjust the antenna’s position:

1. Loosen the bolt on either end of the arm.

2. Move the arm or antenna to the desired position.

3. Re-tighten the bolt so that the antenna and arm stay ﬁrmly in

position.

Mounting to a Mast

2. Attach the clamp assemblies to the base.

Find the other U-bolt, the four washer nuts, the two clamps, and the

antenna base included in this package.

Insert each U-bolt into the base as shown here.Then position a clamp

and two washer nuts on the end of each U-bolt as shown here.

Important: These diagrams show the cable that came with this

antenna.This cable was designed to ﬁt under the U-bolt. If you are

using a different cable, DO NOT pass it under the U-bolt as shown

here. Instead, leave it outside the U-bolt and tape it to the mast.

3. Mount the base to the mast (not

included).

Slide the antenna clamp assembly over

the mast, positioning the mast between

the clamp and the antenna base.

Position the antenna base as high as

possible on the mast. Orient the base in

the direction you want.Then tighten the

clamps and washer nuts securely onto the

mast.

Note: If you used the provided coaxial cable, make sure to mount the

base so that the cable exits downward.

ENGLISH

4. Attach the arm to the base.

Find one of the bolts included in this package.

First, set the bolt in the base’s mounting well.Then position the arm

over the other side of the well.Tighten the bolt to attach the arm to the

base as shown here.

Important: These diagrams show the cable that came with this

antenna.This cable was designed to ﬁt under the U-bolt. If you are

using a different cable, DO NOT pass it under the U-bolt as shown

here. Instead, leave it outside the U-bolt and tape it to the mast.

5. Attach the antenna to the arm.

Find the other bolt included in this package.

First, set the bolt in the antenna’s mounting well.Then position the

arm over the other side of the well.Tighten the bolt to attach the arm

to the antenna as shown here.

continues on next page...

The antenna can be mounted either vertically

or horizontally.To mount it horizontally,

simply rotate the arm clockwise 90O.Try

different positions for best performance.

Important: These diagrams show the cable that came with this

antenna.This cable was designed to ﬁt under the U-bolt. If you are

using a different cable, DO NOT pass it under the U-bolt as shown

here. Instead, leave it outside the U-bolt and tape it to the mast.

To adjust the antenna’s position:

1. Loosen the bolt on either end of the arm.

2. Move the arm or antenna to the desired position.

3. Re-tighten the bolt so that the antenna and arm stay ﬁrmly in

position.

6. Connect the coaxial cable to

the antenna.

Connect the coaxial cable

to the F-connector of the

antenna as shown here.Then

cover the connector with the

attached weather boot.

Note: If you’re using your

own coaxial cable (i.e.,

not the one provided with

this antenna), make sure

to afﬁx it to the outside of

the mounting base.

Connecting toYourTV

1. Run the coaxial cable from the antenna

towards your television set. Connect

the coaxial cable to the ANT jack on the

supplied ampliﬁer insert.

2. Connect built-in coaxial cable on the

ampliﬁer insert to the antenna input jack on

yourTV or converter box.

Note: If you want to split the signal coming

from the antenna, connect the short coaxial

cable built into the ampliﬁer insert to your

splitter (splitter sold separately). DO NOT

PUT THE SIGNAL SPLITTER BETWEEN THE

AMPLIFIER INSERT AND THE ANTENNA.

3. After all other connections are made,

connect the power adapter into the

ampliﬁer insert. Plug it into a standard AC

outlet.

The ampliﬁer insert should always be

located indoors.

low ampliﬁcation. As a rule of thumb, you

should set this switch to HI if the antenna is

outside (or if you’re using it with a splitter

for multipleTVs) and LOW if the antenna

is inside. However, if you notice you’re not

receiving channels you usually receive, try

the switch in the other position.

5. Scan for channels on yourTV or converter

box.

Water Damage Prevention:

At the point where your coaxial cable lead enters the house, you should

allow for some slack in the coaxial cable as a “drip loop.”This will prevent

moisture from running down the coaxial cable and entering the house.

Run the coaxial cable approximately six inches below the wall entry point

and then turn it upwards towards this spot. Any moisture that accumulates

on the coaxial cable will drip off in the bend instead of running into the

house.You should seal the point where the cable enters your home with

a rubber weather insulator or silicone caulking (not included). An “F”

connector wall plate can be used inside the home to cover the inside

portion of the hole.You can typically ﬁnd an “F” connector wall plate at

any local electronics or hardware store.
