Installing your FDTV2A 

antenna

2

Find the best location for the Antenna

Before you connect the antenna, determine the best 

spot in your home for optimum reception. Visit  

www.antennaweb.org to see where your local 

broadcasts are coming from. Then, try as much 

as possible to avoid obstructions between these 
transmitters and your antenna.

Positioning the Antenna

Once you’ve found the best place to set up your 

antenna, you have three options for placing it—you 

can lay it flat, hang it on the wall, or stand it upright. 
The antenna is designed to perform equally well in all 

three positions. For most settings, the recommended 

position is standing. However, the best position for 

your antenna may vary depending on your location 

and setting. Television signal waves bounce off of 

objects, causing signal reflections that might cause 

the antenna to perform better in one location or 

orientation over others. Test the antenna in the 

different positions before putting it in its permanent 

position.

Please Note:

 Do not place your FDTV2A near large 

metal objects or appliances that could create 
interference.
