Setup
❶ Connect the mini coaxial (coax) cable with F
connector to the “ANT IN” coax port on the TV or
compatible device (e.g.Set-Top-Box).
❷ Place the antenna toward the broadcast tower for
optimal reception. For a listing of likely channels
available in your area, visit online to
http://dtv.gov/maps .
❸ Perform a channel scan. To keep your channels
line-up up-to-date, it is a good idea to run a channel
search monthly. You can check the following FAQ and
find how to run a channel scan.
❹ The antenna may need to be repositioned. If so, run a channel scan every time when
you reposition it. You can check the Following “Tips for Maximizing Reception.”
Mounting the Antenna
*Digital signals may bounce off of objects; for this reason, test the antenna in multiple
locations before mounting the antenna.
*Once the best location has been determined, mount the antenna with the magnet base
which is at the end of the antenna.
Tips for Maximizing Reception
*Put the antenna nearby the window which faces the broadcast tower that you want to
receive.
*Best make this magnetic base antenna straight up when put it on a horizontal surface
(e.g:table,bookshelf, cabinet,metal plate).
*Electronics may interfere the signals from the broadcast tower. If so, try mounting the
antenna on a large metal surface, the magnetic will help improve the reception. Or mount
it outside (this antenna is waterproof), then run a new channel scan.
Questions & Answers
Q : How do I run a channel scan?
A: Using the TV remote, Select “Menu” and then “Setting”. Then, select “Channel
Setup”,Select “Antenna” or “Air”, depending on your TV. Make sure you are not on
“Cable”. Select “Channel Search” or “Channel Scan”. Keep in mind that steps to perform
a channel scan may vary. If the wording in your TV differs from the options shown, refer
to your TV user manual for help.
TIP
Running a channel scan is NOT the same as pressing Channel UP/DOWN on your
remote.
Q: When do I need to run a channel scan?
A: To receive maximum programming, you have to perform a channel scan after setting
up the antenna. To keep your channels line-up up-to-date, it is a good idea to run a
channel search monthly and anytime when a channel is lost or you moved the antenna.
Q : How do I know where the signal is strongest?
A: Run a channel search. Try the antenna in different locations, making sure to perform a
channel scan every time you move the antenna. Finding TV signal is similar to cell
phone coverage. Sometimes walking a few miles can make a difference. The fewer
obstructions between the antenna and the broadcasting tower or the closer to a window
the antenna is mounted, the better chance of receiving a strong signal.Some HDTVs have
a signal strength indicator that shows you how strong the signal is. See the instructions
that came with your HDTV to see if yours has that feature.
Q: How can I know which type of antenna and in how many miles range I can buy
for my device?
A: The mile range refers to the distance between the broadcasting towers and your house.
Visit “www.fcc.gov/media/engineering/dtvmaps” or "tvfool" to search the signal strength
and the distance to broadcasting towers to determine if you need an amplifier/signal
booster. If the miles are greater than 35 miles,you need to add an amplifier.
Q: How can I find out what channels are broadcast in my area?
A: Check out http://dtv.gov/maps. On this site, you can enter your location and get a
listing of likely channels available in your area.
Q: How many channels will I receive with your antenna?
A: Like any antenna it will always depend on your location and where the unit is set up.
Generally, if you live in or near a metropolitan area, you will receive more channels than
if living outside a metropolitan area or in very rural areas. Keep in mind that there are a
couple of things to consider: 1) Your geographic location (surrounding by tall trees, high
buildings, hills or mountains;living in a valley, seashore). 2) The distance to the
broadcast tower,if you are down in a "valley" or more than 30 miles away from the
broadcast tower. The less obstructions, the better chance of receiving strong signals.
Q: Does the HDTV antenna work with any TV?
A: Yes,it works with any TV or digital receivers that have built-in ATSC tuner.
TIP
Any television manufactured after March1, 2007 is required by U.S. government to
have an ATSC tuner. If your TV menu has an option for scanning for digital channels,
then your television has an ATSC tuner.
Q: Can I hook up the antenna to multiple televisions?
A: Yes. This antenna can connect with multiple televisions. Additional parts (not
included) may be required to connect to multiple televisions.
Q: What channels can the antenna receive?
A: This antenna may receive all available local programming from all of the major local
broadcast networks(e.g.ABC,CBS,FOX,NBC,PBS,WB,UPN), plus additional networks
(e.g.Qubo, ION, The CW, This TV, MyNetworkTV, Azteca, Telfutura, Univision,and
Telemundo) as well as local news, weather, and educational programs that satellite and
cable don’t offer.
Q: Do I need to pay for programming?
A: No—local programming received through an over-the-air antenna is free!
Troubleshooting
Issue
Possible Cause
Didn’t work at all
1,To check if the installation is correct;
2,To check if your TV has a built-in ATSC tuner or to
check if the HD receiver is working fine;
3,Try running a new channel scan on the TV;
4, Try it with the other device or test your device with
your old antenna
One channel is missing.
1,Try to move the antenna to a new location, then
re-run a channel scan;
2,Try to mount it outside to avoid indoor interference,
then re-run a channel scan;
3,Try to put it on a large iron surface which will help
improve the reception;
The picture or sound
freezes while I am
watching a channel, or
there are boxes in the
picture.
This is often caused by a weak or intermittent
signal.Try moving the antenna to a different location or
aiming it directly at the broadcast tower for this
channel. DO NOT place the antenna in a metal
shielded space (e.g.mobile home,shelter made of
metal)
