Connecting Over-the-Air Antenna/Cable TV

Note: Move all nearby over-the-air antennas away from the UHF remote antenna. Do not place an over-the-air antenna on top of your receiver.

The audio/video quality on local over-the-air channels depends on the distance and terrain between the broadcast station and your home, and on the placement and quality of the over-the-air TV antenna you use. If you have questions about over-the-air channels, contact the broadcaster, not DISH Network.

Make sure to follow the antenna installation instructions correctly. Ground the antenna per the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any local electrical codes.
