Following are instructions for indoor installation. Read through all instructions prior to beginning installation procedure.

Note: Although this antenna is great for indoor use, a higher mounting location positioned towards the broadcast tower may result in better reception. Install the antenna as high as possible, and preferably with a clear path between the antenna and the TV station transmitters. Trees, buildings, mountains, etc., can all impact the performance of any antenna.

VHF Enhancement Rods

Connecting

  1. Connect the coaxial cable attached to the antenna to the ANTENNA/CABLE IN connector on the back of the TV or converter box. Connect the USB cable between the DC socket in the Smartpass Amplifier and an open USB port with DC SV output on the back of the TV. If the TV does not have a USB port with DC SV output, use the included power adapter to power the Smartpass Amplifier via wall outlet.
