HDTV Antenna/Satellite System
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped
with an exterior amplied high denition TV
antenna. The antenna comes equipped with
a signal meter and a power injector to aid in
receiving the strongest possible signal when
tuning in HDTV stations.

inside the RV is used to rotate the outdoor
roof antenna. The arrow on the knob should
be pointed towards the TV signal source (TV
station). Press the button on the side of the
knob and turn it to rotate the antenna for optimum signal. The antenna will rotate a full 360°.

button located on the wall plate, switches between your
cable/satellite signal and the over-the-air (OTA) HDTV
signals. When the button on the wall plate is turned ON,
it lights green and interrupts the satellite/cable input to the
TV. It allows the OTA HDTV signals from the outside
roof antenna to your TV. When the button is turned OFF,
satellite/cable signals are resumed again on your TV.

have a built in signal strength meter to aid in obtaining
maximum TV signal. A row of LED lights will light up on
the face of the base enclosure to indicate signal strength. Optimum signal is indicated when
the maximum number of LEDs are lit.
• Make sure the power injector is turned ON at the wall plate which turns power on to
the antenna.
• To turn on the signal meter, slide the black button on the side of the base (arrow in
photo).
• Rotate the small attenuator knob on the face of the base enclosure fully clockwise.
• Press the button on the side of the large knob with the arrow, and rotate it until the
maximum number of LEDs light.
• Rotate the small attenuator knob counter-clockwise until the last illuminated LED light
ickers.
• Rotate the large antenna knob to illuminate the last ickering LED light.
• Refer to your TV (or converter box) manual for information on scanning for available
OTA channels.
 This antenna is a xed height (12”) and cannot be lowered or
raised. Trees and foliage will interfere with receiving a strong HDTV signal.
