III. Key Considerations For Your Installation Site
• Be sure that installation is in accordance with all local, city and state

code to identify the channels you can expect to receive.

Step 1: Connect Your Antenna to Your TV
Plug the barrel end of the power supply into the DC input on the antenna,
and the AC end into an electrical outlet.
If your TV has a digital tuner:
Simply connect the antenna’s coaxial output cable directly to your TV’s
antenna input port.
If your TV does not have a digital tuner:
Connect the antenna’s coaxial output cable to your digital converter box,
and then connect your converter box output cable to your TV.

Step 2: Check the LED Signal Indicator
The built-in LED signal indicator assists in locating the best channel
reception. The LED lights indicate ideal signal strength.
Note: You must re-scan for channels anytime you move or reposition your
antenna.
GOOD BETTER BEST
To perform a TV channel scan:
• Set the tuner mode to “Antenna” or “Air” on your TV’s setup menu.
• Set your TV to scan for channels. This may be listed as auto-program,
auto-scan, channel search or channel scan.
• Move and rotate your antenna, and note which locations receive the most
channels and best channel reception.
Note: Running a channel scan is not the same as pressing Channel UP/
DOWN on your remote.
• Refer to your TV’s user manual for further details.

Troubleshooting
I am not getting any channels, or channels are missing.
Keep your antenna away from sources of interference, including air
conditioners, hair dryers and microwave ovens.
Move or rotate your antenna and re-run a channel scan on your TV. Refer to
your TV’s user manual for more information.
Picture or sound freezes while I am watching a channel. Picture quality
is weak.
This is often caused by a weak or intermittent signal. Try moving or rotating
your antenna to a dierent location or angle.
When do I need to run a channel scan?
Run a channel scan after setting up or adjusting your antenna.
Visit www.antennaweb.org/address to calculate the strength of each station.
You may then run a channel scan on an as-needed basis.
How do I know where the signal is strongest?
Test your antenna in dierent locations or at dierent angles, making sure to
run a channel scan every time you move your antenna.
Sometimes moving a few feet can make a dierence. The fewer obstructions
between the antenna and the tower, and the higher the antenna is mounted,
the better the chance of receiving a strong signal.
Some HDTVs have a signal strength indicator that shows how strong your
signal is. Refer to your TV’s user manual for more information.
Where should I place my antenna?
The antenna is designed for indoor use. We recommend placing your
antenna on a at surface or mounting it on a wall near a window.

Does my antenna work with any HDTV?
Your antenna works with any HDTV or device that has an ATSC tuner. Any TV
manufactured after March 1, 2007 is required by US government to have an
ATSC tuner. If your TV menu has an option to scan for digital channels, your
TV has an ATSC tuner.
How many channels will I receive with my antenna?
The number of channels will vary from location to location. Generally, if you
live in or near a metropolitan area, you will receive more channels than if you
live outside a metropolitan area. Keep in mind that antenna reception may
vary based on terrain (including trees, buildings, hills and mountains). The
fewer the obstructions, the better your chance of receiving strong digital
signals.
How do I conrm that my antenna is working properly?
Connect your antenna to the power supply. Make sure the indicator light is
on. Then, plug your antenna into your TV’s tuner, and make sure there are
input signals.
What should I do if my antenna indicator light is o?
If the light does not turn on, please check whether the connector is loose,
the plug is not fully inserted or if it is placed incorrectly.
Are all broadcasts now in High Denition?
Not all digital signals are in High Denition. Make sure your digital receiver is
an HD receiver, otherwise HD channels cannot be viewed.
