Always use the supplied extension cable to extend the coaxial cables. If the supplied extension 

cable is not long enough, use the LCD 89 antenna cable from KATHREIN Digital Systems or a 

comparable coaxial cable.
Always make sure that the coaxial cables are connected properly. We recommend using the
