Antennas should not be positioned in the vicinity of instruments likely to cause signal interference, for example, air conditioning systems. The NTS-6002 device is a ‘set it and forget it’ device, but external antennas should be checked regularly, particularly after bad weather. Cleaning of the time server device should be done with a dry, anti-static cloth to remove dust.
