Congratulations on the purchase of your high gain wideband aerial which is designed to receive locally available digital TV signals.
This aerial is also 4G ready - the design restricts bandwidth to prevent interference & channel loss on your TV caused by signals from 4G transmitters.
This aerial has been manufactured to the standard required to get the best reception of digital terrestrial TV services (such as Freeview™). If the aerial
is to be used for DTT reception check before installation at www.dtg.org.uk/retailer/coverage to confirm that your home is in a coverage area and to
find where your local transmitter is. For optimum results install the aerial using double screened digital coax cable and screened coax outlets.

The aerial requires some assembly - please read these
instructions carefully before beginning.
A. Assembly of central boom and
centre mounting bracket
1. Before attaching the centre mount bracket to
the aerial boom you will need to attach the
mast clamp to centre mount bracket.
First undo the wing nuts and detach the
V bolt from the mast clamp. Then slide the mast
clamp into a central position on the bracket.
2. The central boom comes in 2 sections using the
bracket supplied and the holes drilled in the boom
sections join these 2 sections as shown in Fig. 1.
3. Attach centre mount bracket in the position shown
using the clips supplied as shown in Fig. 1.
B. Fitting the dipole assembly
The dipole clips onto the central boom. Ensure that the cable
exit hole (from the terminal box) faces the rear of the aerial.
Slide the dipole assembly over the back of the boom until the
locating stud is positioned over the locating hole on the boom
and clip into place as shown in Fig. 2.
B. Fitting the reflectors
1. Using the reflector clamps, screw and large wing nut, fix
the reflector assemblies to the main aerial boom as
shown in Fig. 3.
.2. Check that the reflector clamp tabs locate in the holes
of the reflector boom sections and that the wing nut
is tight as shown in Fig. 4.
.3. Ensure that the reflector elements are facing towards the
front of the aerial (convex surface forward).

Please Note: Coaxial cable, mountings and masts are not supplied with this aerial. You will need to select these from the
range available according to the specific requirements of your installation. The quality of the coaxial cable used is as
important as the quality of the aerial and you should make sure that if it is not specifically marked as suitable for digital
TV it is of the same quality as that used for digital satellite installations.
