സൈറ്റ് തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കൽ

The location of your antenna significantly impacts reception.

• ഔട്ട്ഡോർ ഇൻസ്റ്റലേഷൻ: Recommended for best results. Choose a location with a clear line of sight to broadcasting towers, free from obstructions like trees, buildings, or hills.
• Attic Installation: Possible, but may result in a loss of 10-15 miles in effective range due to building materials.
• Tower Location: Use an app like "Antenna Point" (available on App Store and Google Play) to identify the location of local TV towers and determine the best direction to aim your antenna.

മൗണ്ടിംഗ്

1. Securely attach the antenna to a mast using the adjustable mast clamp. Ensure the mast is firmly anchored to your roof or other stable structure.
2. For multi-directional reception, adjust the panels to face different transmitting towers as identified by your site survey. The panels can pivot 180 degrees.
3. Run a high-quality coaxial cable from the antenna to your TV or distribution system. Ensure the cable is properly secured and protected from weather elements.

Optimizing Reception

• പാനൽ ക്രമീകരണം: If you are targeting towers in different directions, fine-tune the angle of each antenna panel for the best signal strength.
• സിഗ്നൽ Ampജീവപര്യന്തം: In areas with weak signals or if splitting the signal to multiple TVs, a pre-amplifier or distribution amplifier (such as Antennas Direct Juice Plus or Juice4) may be beneficial.
• വീണ്ടും സ്‌കാൻ ചെയ്യുക: Periodically rescan for channels, especially if you notice a loss of channels or if new stations become available in your area.
