Installation Considerations
Follow local, state, and National Electric Code requirements for
grounding the over-the-air antenna.
RG-6 coaxial cable is preferred for the
OVER THE AIR ANTENNA
I
N connection. If you are diplexing the OVER THE AIR ANTENNA
I
N and SATELLITE IN cables, RG-6 cable must be used.
You cannot use a diplexer to combine the
OVER THE AIR
A
NTENNA IN and SATELLITE IN cables if using an amplified
antenna.
Reception of digital over-the-air broadcasts is outside of the
control of DISH Network. If you have questions about over-the-
air broadcasts, contact the broadcaster, not DISH Network.
Digital Transition Consideration
Although all full-power over-the-air stations are transitioning to digital-
only broadcasts beginning February 17, 2009, there will be some
broadcasters who will continue using analog signals after this date.
Because the OTA Module includes digital-only tuners, stations that are
still broadcasting analog signals cannot be received using this module.
