Installation Steps:
1. The highest point will usually produce the best results. If you do not have roof access, you
should choose the side of the building with the strongest signal. With your wireless phone turned
on, walk around your house while noting the number of “bars” on your signal strength indicator.
2. When you have determined the location of the strongest signal, install and tighten the antenna to
your antenna mast or pole with the brackets provided. Loosely tighten the mast, so that you can
rotate it from the base.
3. Connect the RG-6 coax cable to the antenna.
4. Wrap the F- type connector using the Coax-Seal tape provided in the package.
5. Route the antenna cable indoors and connect it to the base unit using the Cell Phone Signal
Booster installation instructions.
