• the amplified TV signal from the
antenna, through the power injector, to
the video equipment
If any devices (such as amplifiers, splitters,
combiners, matching transformers, 300-ohm
cable) are used in your home cabling system,
they must be connected between the power
injector and your video equipment. Any
devices connected between the power
injector and the antenna might cause a short
in the amplifier power source. If this happens,
the injector’s indicator does not light and the
signals to your video equipment (multiple TVs
or VCRs) might be significantly degraded.

Before installing your antenna, perform this
test to make sure it works properly.
1. Connect a temporary 75-ohm cable
between the power injector’s
ANT
75-
ohm jack and the antenna’s F-
connector.
±
2. Connect the power injector’s TV cable to
your TV’s VHF/UHF 75-ohm F-
connector.
3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s small
plug into the
DC 12V
jack on the power
injector.
±
4. Plug the supplied AC adapter into a
standard AC outlet. If the power
injector’s indicator lights, the antenna is
properly connected.

You can mount the antenna in an attic, closet
or other out-of-the way indoor location. The
antenna can be mounted on a horizontal
mast, closet rod, or on a short piece of mast
suspended from a roof support by a 4-inch
wall-mount bracket (not supplied, available at
RadioShack).
Or, you can simply place the antenna on a
shelf in a closet. Be sure the antenna is not in
a position where it could easily fall or be
damaged.

For the best results, mount the antenna away
from trees or other obstructions. Higher
frequencies are noticeably affected by these
obstructions.
The antenna is easy to install on any antenna
mast or optional light-duty mount using
simple hand tools and the following additional
items (not supplied, available at
RadioShack).
• coax downlead (we recommend RG-6
cable for best performance)
• connection sealant tape or weather
boots
The antenna package includes these parts:
1. Attach the antenna mounting bracket to
the bottom of the antenna using the four
#12 (

-inch long) self-tapping screws
and four #12 split lockwashers.
2. Attach both mast clamps, U-bolts, four

tighten the hex nuts.
3. Plug one end of the 75-ohm coaxial
downlead cable to the antenna’s jack

If installing the antenna in a motor home, we
recommend you use a 12V DC cord (not

store and online at RadioShack.com).
