antenna.

Antenna Placement Tips

Avoid metal surfaces (like a metal stand).
Move the antenna close to or in a window.
Position the antenna as high as possible.
2

Place the antenna.

Place the antenna on a flat surface within reach of your
TV, facing the direction where most of your broadcast
towers are located.
Connect the antenna's coaxial
3
cable to your TV.
Amplifier
IMPORTANT: Make sure your TV is turned off.
FOR BEST RESULTS make sure you uncoil the antenna's
coaxial cable completely! Leaving any part of the coaxial
cable coiled will compromise your reception performance.
STOP!
AMPLIFIED MULTI-DIRECTIONAL
TV antennas perform best
when facing the direction of
the broadcaster's tower.

Plug in the antenna's power cord

to a power outlet.
Amplifier
TIP: The amplifier has a 3-way DUAL / PREAMP / BYPASS
switch that lets you adjust the amplifier for different TV signals.
The DUAL position uses both external amplifier and the
preamp built into the antenna itself. The PREAMP position uses
just the pramp. The BYPASS position turns all amplification
off. Most TV channels will perform better with this switch left
in the DUAL position. However, if a channel is not providing the
performance you expect, try watching it with this switch in the
PREAMP or BYPASS position to see if that makes a difference.
5

Scan for channels on your TV.

Most TVs have a channel scan option in their menu
system, many times in a SETUP or CHANNEL menu
under ANTENNA. For detailed instructions on
performing a channel scan, see the owner's manual
that came with your TV.
IMPORTANT: For some channels you might get better
performance with the antenna in a different position or facing a
different direction. Sometimes just a little bit of adjustment can
make a difference!
