STEP 1:
Verify all components and parts are included, using figure at bottom of this page.
STEP 2:
Install the JACK Antenna in one of two ways (Page 2):

®
retractable arm using the supplied RV Antenna Bracket.
•

Bracket.
DO NOT MOUNT TO A POLE ON A VEHICLE.
STEP 3:
READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAREFULLY, THEN MAKE CONNECTIONS ON PAGE 3.

VHF + UHF Amplified HDTV Antenna
Model OA-8000 & OA-8001 Installation Instructions
When replacing an existing amplified antenna that has an existing power injector, just replace
the antenna head assembly and verify that you have power to the JACK antenna when the wall
switch power injector is “ON.” A red LED light on the bottom of the JACK antenna will illuminate
when +12 volts is present and the internal amplifier is powered.
Do not use both the existing
power injector and the power injector supplied with the JACK Antenna!
Using two power injectors in the circuit can cause the JACK Antenna
power supply to overheat, possibly causing injury or severe damage.
Use either the existing power injector or the JACK power injector.
WARNING: DO NOT USE BOTH POWER INJECTORS!
Verify that any existing power injector has been disconnected.
When using an existing power injector already in the RV
When using the JACK Antenna with the supplied power injector
A typical power injector for an
existing RV antenna will be a wall
plate or A/V distribution box with an
ON/OFF type switch.
