Amplifying the Signal

The signal received at the antenna is all the signal the system will ever have; amplifiers can only prevent losing this signal as it runs to one or more televisions. Therefore, mounting location and direction are very important. An amplifier or pre-amplifier may be required if any of the following applies:

The cable between the antenna and the television is longer than 50 feet.

More than one television is connected to the antenna.

The received signal is not strong enough to ensure consistent performance.

If you have questions, contact RCA at 1-800-290-6650 or visit RCAAudioVideo.com.

Note: We recommend using this antenna with a high quality preamplifier, such as the RCA TVPRAMP1R, available at many retailers or from RCAAudioVideo.com.
