IMPORTANT: Before Installing, Note These Important Factors in Determining
Performance
1. At least 15
vertical feet is needed between the External Antenna (receives the outside signal)
and the Indoor Antenna (rebroadcasts the signal indoors). Separation less than 15 vertical feet
will result in decreased performance.
If the antennas are too close together, a solid ORANGE light will appear on the Base Unit -
see the Base Unit Light Indicators section (page 11). To capture the best signal, place the
External Antenna as high as possible.
2. Position the External Antenna vertically and keep it at least 3 feet
above any metal.
Additional Cable Requirements
If the distance between the External Antenna and the Base Unit exceeds 50 feet, extension cables
are available on our website. The included cable is RG-6.
The total cable length should not exceed 65 feet unless upgraded cable and/or upgraded External
Antenna (see page v) is used. A longer cable is helpful only if it allows you to place the External
Antenna in a location where you measure stronger signal.
