Mounting the HDRo Antenna
Mounting Options:
For Best performance, the HDRo should be mounted outdoors
in a high location (such as a roof). It can also be mounted on a
standard antenna mast (not included), which can be mounted to
the side of your house or a chimney. You can also mount the HDRo
in your attic. However, mounting the antenna inside the attic can
degrade the performance of the antenna.
A
The HDRo can be mounted:
- with the bracket and 4 included lag bolts to a flat surface
OR
- with the bracket and 2 included u-bolts, clamps and 4 wing nuts
to a mast (not included)
NOTE: Do not install the HDRo on any metal surface, including
aluminum siding. Mounting on a metal surface will seriously
degrade reception quality.
WARNING: Never hang anything from the HDRo or attach foreign
objects to the HDRo.
NOTE: When using a mast to mount the HDRo, it is recommended
that you first install the mast at the desired location, and then
attach the antenna to the mast.

Connecting the HDRo to a Radio
1. Connect RG6 coaxial cable to the HDRo antenna and run the
cable into the room where your radio is located.
Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the supplied
Power Injector to the terminal labeled "ANT". (See fig. 5)
NOTE: Do not plug in the Power Injector yet.
Fig 5.
2. The way you connect the Power Injector to your radio depends
on the type of connection your radio offers.
If your radio only has an "F" connector for FM and no
connections for AM:
Connect the coaxial cable from the Power Injector labeled "FM
/ DIPLEXER" directly to the FM input of your radio.
