the amplified TV signal from the antenna, through the power injector, to the video equipment

If any devices (such as amplifiers, splitters, combiners, matching transformers, 300-ohm cable) are used in your home cabling system, they must be connected between the power injector and your video equipment. Any devices connected between the power injector and the antenna might cause a short in the amplifier power source. If this happens, the injector’s indicator does not light and the signals to your video equipment (multiple TVs or VCRs) might be significantly degraded.

Before installing your antenna, perform this test to make sure it works properly.

1.Connect a temporary 75-ohm cable between the power injector’s ANT 75-

ohm jack and the antenna’s F- connector.±

2.Connect the power injector’s TV cable to your TV’s VHF/UHF 75-ohm F- connector.

3.Insert the supplied AC adapter’s small

plug into the DC 12V jack on the power injector.±

4.Plug the supplied AC adapter into a standard AC outlet. If the power injector’s indicator lights, the antenna is properly connected.

You can mount the antenna in an attic, closet or other out-of-the way indoor location. The antenna can be mounted on a horizontal mast, closet rod, or on a short piece of mast suspended from a roof support by a 4-inch wall-mount bracket (not supplied, available at RadioShack).

Or, you can simply place the antenna on a shelf in a closet. Be sure the antenna is not in a position where it could easily fall or be damaged.
