Once you have determined the best location for the antenna,
it can be mounted with the provided VELCRO
and loop fasteners. If the fasteners are not sufficient for
mounting to a particular surface, the antenna can also be
mounted to a surface with nails. Note that the antenna is not
meant for use in an attic.

Tips for Maximizing Reception
Mount the antenna on a window that faces the broadcast tower of stations
that you want to receive. The sides of the antenna have blind spots, so the
antenna may not "see" enough signal from the broadcast tower if the sides
of the antenna face the tower.
If the antenna is mounted so that it hangs vertically, the coax cable should run
from the top or bottom of the antenna. If the antenna is mounted so that it lies
flat (e.g. on a table), the coax cable should point toward the signal.

The coax cable is running from the side of the antenna instead of the top or
bottom of the antenna. Try re-positioning the antenna so that the coax cable
runs from the top or bottom of the antenna, and run a new channel scan.
The antenna may not pick up signal when mounted near electronics, or
behind electronics, including the television itself, and may reflect the signal from
broadcast tower. If so, try mounting the antenna higher on the wall, and run a
new channel scan. The higher the antenna, the better signal you will receive.
