Attach one end of a 75-ohm coax-
ial cable to the amplifier’s F-con-
nector labeled
TO POWER SUPPLY
.
Note: Do not splice the cable or
install any in-line devices such as
splitters or filters. You can install a
grounding block (Cat. No. 15-909),
which dissipates DC current and
provides a connection point for a
static discharge ground rod.
4. Use either standoffs or weather-
resistant electrical tape to secure
the cable to the antenna mast.
Use standoffs to secure the cable
to the building as you route the
cable to your TV.
Notes:
• If you use a power rotator for
your antenna, leave enough
cable slack for unrestrained
rotation of the upper section.
• Leave a slight amount of slack
(called a drip loop) where the
cable enters your house.
• Be sure to weatherproof all con-
nections, using plastic electrical
tape or a coaxial sealant.
Installing the Power Supply
Notes:
• The power supply is designed for
indoor use only.
• Do not mount the unit to any elec-
trical equipment or your TV set.
Choose a location for the power
supply near the TV or FM receiver,
and close to a standard AC outlet.
1. Drill a hole at the desired location
and thread the supplied screw into
the hole until its head extends
about
1
/
8
inch from the wall.
2. Align the power supply’s keyhole
slot with the screw head and slide
the power supply down.
3. Connect the coaxial cable from the
amplifier to the power supply’s
FROM AMPLIFIER
terminal. Do not
overtighten the connector.
4. Connect one end of a short length
of cable to the power supply’s
TO
TV
terminal.
