Install A Turning Tv Antenna

Many indoor TV antennas deliver poor performance because they are affected by walls, movement of people and improper height and directional focus. This is especially true of TVs with built-in combination VHF/UHF telescoping rod antennas. A turning TV antenna with separate UHF and VHF components can overcome many of these issues by allowing you to turn it to the direction that delivers the optimal reception for the channel you are viewing. Installation is easy if you follow these simple steps.


Instructions


1. Turn off the TV and place the antenna on the TV.


2. Attach the coax cable from the antenna to the TV’s coax input jack. Screw it on by hand until it is finger tight, then give it about a quarter turn with an adjustable wrench.


3. Attach the UHF twin lead cable to your TV’s UHF input jack. Loosen the screws just enough so that you can slip the wires under the screws. Tighten the screws securely, but not too tight.


4. Turn on the TV and adjust the turning portion of your antenna until you’ve located the best reception.
