Location Tips

• Make sure that buildings or other infrastructures are not blocking the TV tower.
• The higher the antenna, the better the signal. Place it at least six feet above the roof.
• Make your lead-in line shorter to avoid excessive signal loss.
• Do not put your TV antenna near the chimney.
• Follow local ordinances about installing antennas, if there are any.
• Make sure that there are no power lines that could touch the antenna or its lines.

Aerial Installation Tips

• Get suggestions from the dealer to determine the best mounting foundation material for the aerial.
• Carefully read the instructions on how to assemble the antenna.
• To protect it from lightning, use standard ground rods.
• Try to point the spine of the antenna in the direction of the TV tower.
• Adjust the antenna by having someone watch the TV set while shifting the television aerial or adjusting its height.
• Keep the lead-in line away from sharp bends and splices.
• Use stand-off devices to separate the twin lead from the metal gutters for at least three inches.
• Secure the coaxial cable by taping it to the mast. This will avoid further strain on the signal.
