Finding the Right Location Before you mount the antenna, consider the following factors in reception performance: • The antenna performs best when mounted vertically • The antenna should be mounted on the side of your house that faces most of your local broadcast towers. Visit www.antennaweb.org to see the locations of your local broadcast towers. • The higher the elevation of the antenna, the better the reception performance will be. Mounting the Antenna The antenna mounting base and arm give you flexibility in mounting the antenna. The antenna can be mounted: • To a surface, such as a rooftop, eaves, siding, or rafters in an attic -OR- • To a standard mast (not included) WARNING: Never hang anything from the antenna; never attach foreign objects to the antenna. NOTES: Do not install the antenna on any metal surface, including aluminum siding. Mounting on a metal surface will seriously degrade reception quality. In most cases, the antenna provides the best performance when mounted outdoors in a high location (such as on the roof or high up on the side of your house). The antenna can also be mounted in an attic or indoors. 2
