7 Element Compact TV Aerial
LABGT07T
USER GUIDE
Congratulations on the purchase of your LABGT07T aerial. The aerial is ideal for the
reception of all available digital TV signals in strong signal strength areas.
The aerial design has been tuned to minimise reception of signals above 790MHz from Lte800 4G
mobile phone transmitters which can interfere with digital TV channels.
Features include:
• 12dBi Gain
• F type connector for secure and easy connection
• No assembly required
• Compact pack for easy handling and transportation

Installation Instructions

For optimum results install the aerial using double screened CAI benchmarked digital
coax cable (for the downlead) and screened coax outlets (not supplied). Use the F
connector and weather boot supplied to connect the coax downlead (not supplied) to
the F socket on the aerial.
1. Prepare the Coax Cable: Firstly fit the rubber weather boot
provided, to the aerial end of the cable. Strip the end of the
cable as shown in Fig. 1. Once you have stripped the cable,
twist the braid and pull it back on itself, make sure that no
braid is touching the copper core as this will cause a short on
the cable and you will not get any signal.
2. Fitting the F connector: Now, simply twist on
the 'F' connector supplied and trim the central conductor.
For best results the aerial should be mounted on an outdoor aerial mast and pointed in the direction of the nearest
transmitter* making sure it is in a position where the transmitter signal will not be obstructed by nearby trees and buildings.
If you are in any doubt about the direction in which the aerial should be pointing or the orientation of the aerial (horizontal for
main transmitter, vertical for relay transmitter) check your neighbours' aerials.
The aerial is supplied fully assembled.
If mounting on an existing mast check that the mast is in good condition and firmly fixed.
