Locating your SS-3000 SharpShoterTM Antenna

Your SharpShoterTM is a precision instrument and should be placed in a location that is best for receiving TV signals.

Your SharpShoterTM can be placed on top of any TV for ease of adjustment.

Operating your SS-3000 SharpSh oterTM

Positioning the SharpShoterTM properly will give you optimal digital television (DTV) reception, especially in areas of high multipath. In such areas, an antenna reposition of a few inches could mean the difference between an excellent DTV stream or a loss of picture.

First you should point the antenna towards a window.

If this fails to give you a solid picture, slowly rotate the antenna 360 degrees until you receive a picture - the SharpShoterTM antenna was designed to pick up reflected signals from interior walls. Keep in mind that the best reflected signal may be behind the antenna.

NOTE: It is best to utilize the Signal Strength Meter of your set-top box or HDTV television with built in tuner to optimize the position of the SharpShoterTM antenna.

You can use the following Web tool to find where the broadcast towers are located from your home address:

1.Go to www.antennaweb.org and click the “Antenna Locator.”

2.Enter your home’s address and then “Submit.”

3.Click “View Street Level Map” to see which direction you should point your antenna.

Please Note:

1.Do not place your SharpShoterTM near large metal objects or appliances that could create interference.

2.Do not lift your SharpShoterTM by its receiving elements or place objects on them.

3.Late model televisions have on-screen menu controls for viewing VHF/UHF “Off-Air” or cable broadcasts. Please ensure that this menu control is at the proper “Off-Air” position.
