SELECT AND MEASURE YOUR INSTALLATION SITE

Key things to consider in choosing the antenna installation
site are:
1) Choose a SAFE location that is far away from power lines.
Keep the distance between power lines and the
antenna and its mounting structure at least 2 times the
combined height of the antenna and its mounting structure
added together. Refer to the Important Safety
Instructions.
2) Determine the location of the broadcast towers in your
area. You will need to point the small end of your antenna
toward those towers. There are online resources such
as www.antennaweb.org that can help you identify your
local broadcast towers and the channels you can expect to
receive.
3) Check your local, city and state building and electrical
codes. Make sure your planned installation is safe and in
compliance with all applicable codes, rules and
regulations.
