4.2 మౌంటు స్థానాన్ని ఎంచుకోవడం

Optimal signal reception is achieved with a clear line of sight to broadcast towers. Consider the following locations:

• Outdoor (Roof/Chimney/Eave/Mast): This is generally the best option for maximum range and signal clarity. Use the included J-pole and installation kit to securely mount the antenna.
• Attic: Can be suitable if outdoor mounting is not feasible. Signal strength may be reduced due to building materials.
• ఇండోర్: While possible, indoor reception is typically limited. Place near a window facing the broadcast towers.

4.4 Connecting the Antenna to Your TV(s)

1. Connect one end of the 40ft RG6 coaxial cable to the antenna's output.
2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the 'Antenna In' port of the included power inserter/signal booster.
3. Connect the power adapter to the power inserter/signal booster and plug it into an electrical outlet.
4. Connect a short coaxial cable from the 'TV Out' port of the power inserter/signal booster to the 'IN' port of the 4-way splitter.
5. Connect individual coaxial cables from the 'OUT' ports of the 4-way splitter to the 'Antenna In' or 'RF In' port on each of your TVs (up to 4 TVs).
