Installing an outdoor UHF HDTV Antenna
Installation Tips
* As seen in the video we prefer using a two bow-tie or four bow-tie UHF antenna. The antenna used in the video above is a two bow-tie antenna. It is important to know there is a front and back to the antenna. The front of the antenna needs to be pointing towards the TV translator site serving your community. (view picture one)
* For optimized antennas installations, we prefer mounting the antenna outside the residence. Attic installations can be adequate. If your roof top is metal it will not work.
* If installing antenna with dish or cable network, it is best to run a separate coax line for the antenna.
* Antenna user can feed up to 3 separate TV's utilizing a two or three way spliter. Feeding more TV's may require an amplifier. Marginal locations may require other techniques. (contact KTTA with questions)
* Connecting your antenna to your T.V. - Use RG-6 cable. Old style flat twin lead cable is strongly discouraged.
