Find the best location for the antenna
Before you connect the antenna, determine the best spot in your home for optimum
reception. Visit www.antennaweb.org to see where your local broadcasts are coming from.
Then, try as much as possible to avoid obstructions between these transmitters and your
antenna.
Because of its multi-directional capabilities, the ANT1700F receives UHF, VHF, and local
high-defi nition broadcasts, providing quality reception from most locations.
Note: The ANT1700F may work well sitting on your TV or other components. However,
because electronic components can sometimes interfere with the antenna’s reception, you
might notice an effect on the antenna’s performance. Likewise, placing the antenna on
a metal surface may interfere with reception. If the antenna isn’t performing as well as
expected, try moving it away from the component or placing it on another surface. Then,
re-scan for channels on your TV or converter box.
