TIPS FOR GETTING THE BEST PERFORMANCE
Maintain a line-of-sight between the transmitter and receiver antennas.
Keep the receiver and antennas away from large metal objects.
Avoid placing the receiver near computers or other RF generating equipment.
Point the antennas straight up.
Avoid placing the receiver in the bottom of an equipment rack unless the an-
tennas are remotely located.
