GOOD: Rafter Mounting Option
1. Select a location in the buildings rafters where the outside Cradle
Antenna can be mounted directly above the Desktop Antenna with at
least 15 feet vertical separation. See Figure 7-2 on page 6.
2. Using the cradle as a template, position it on the rafter in the desired
location and mark the screw holes with a pencil.
3. Drill two holes where marked, using a 3/16-inch bit and insert the
screw anchors.
4. Line up the holes in the cradle with the screw anchors and mount the
cradle to the wall using two screws and two washers (see Figure 10
on page 7). Tighten the screws with a Phillips-head screwdriver.
OK: Inside Window Mount (Packet C)*
1. Select a location on the inside of the window as high as possible and at
least 20 feet from where the Signal Booster will be located.
2. Clean the area on the glass with the supplied alcohol prep pad.
3.
Mount the outside Cradle Antenna using the suction cups provided in
Packet C. Using a twisting motion, press the suction cups into the two
holes on the antenna cradle (see Figure 11), then press the cradle onto the
glass at the desired location.
4. Insert the antenna into the cradle with the Wilson Electronics
insignia facing in the direction of the cell tower. The cable
connection should protrude through the bottom of the cradle.
5. Connect the supplied cable to the antenna and route the cable as desired to where the signal booster will
be located. Depending on the distance between the signal booster and antenna, you may need one or both
lengths of the supplied cable. If you use both, connect them together with the supplied cable connector.

*Note: Window mounting the antenna will degrade the performance of your
system due to the metal oxide film applied to most windows. Most glass
windows have a metal film that reduces signal strength up to 20dB.
