Signal readings usually appear as a negative number (for example, -86) . 

The closer you get to zero the stronger the signal (see graph above) .

 

Mounting Tips for Running Outside  

Antenna Cable

If you are mounting the Outside Antenna on the roof of your building, we 

have found that it is easiest to run your cable underneath the down side 

of your roof’s flashing . If you have satellite TV service installed you may 

be able to follow the same route as the satellite TV cables that are already 

running from outside of your building to the inside .

 

After routing the cable, we recommend sealing any areas where the cable 

passes into the building with cable bushings, silicone or other waterproof 

sealant to keep your installation from leaking . If you are mounting the 

Outside Antenna to the outside wall of your home or building, the simplest 

way is to run the cable on the outside of the wall and attach it to the 

exterior of your home or office . Then drill a hole through the wall where you 

want the cable to appear on the inside of the building . Before drilling, make 

sure that there are no electrical outlets, sewer or water pipes, or electrical 

wiring in the wall that you are about to drill through as this could potentially 

harm you or damage the building . 

the phone in the test mode so the actual signal strength can be read, 

as bars are not the most accurate . Go to 

www.WilsonElectronics.com

 

for help in finding the test mode for your phone .  Always make sure the 

person inside the building gives the signal time to arrive and register 

on the phone (between 10-30 seconds for phone to reset to the signal 

reading) .
