Questions

Answers
How do I know where the signal is strongest?
After connecting the coax cable to the “Antenna In” port on the TV,
run a channel scan. Try the antenna in different locations, making sure
to run a channel scan every time you move the antenna. Finding TV
signal is similar to cell phone coverage. Sometimes walking a few
feet can make a difference. The less obstructions and the higher the
antenna is mounted, the better chance of receiving a strong signal.
Does the Rayzar antenna work with any TV?
The Rayzar antenna works with any TV or device that has an ATSC
tuner. Devices that have built-in ATSC tuners include TVs, laptops,
PCs, some satellite receivers, and digital recording devices (DVRs).
Tip
Any television manufactured after March 1, 2007 is required by U.S.
government to have an ATSC tuner. If your TV menu has an option
for scanning for digital channels, then your television has an ATSC tuner.
What channels can the Rayzar antenna receive?
The antenna may receive all available local programming. The antenna
can receive programming from all of the major local broadcast networks
(e.g. ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS) plus additional networks (Qubo, ION,
The CW, This TV, MyNetworkTV, Azteca, Telefutura, Univision, and
Telemundo). The Rayzar antenna can also receive local news, weather,
and educational programs that satellite and cable don’t offer.
How many channels will I receive with the Rayzar antenna?
The number of channels will vary from location to location. Generally, if
you are in or near a metropolitan area, you will receive more channels
than if outside a metropolitan area. Keep in mind that antenna reception
may vary based on terrain (including trees, buildings, hills, and
mountains). The fewer obstructions, the better your chance for receiving
strong digital signals.
Do I need to pay for programming?
No—local programming received through an over-the-air antenna is free!
Can I connect the Rayzar antenna to multiple televisions?
The signal should only be split between multiple TVs if using an
amplified antenna or amplifier.
