Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack Amplified Indoor TV Antenna. Your antenna provides
excellent reception of VHF and UHF broadcast TV channels and FM radio stations in most
listening locations. You can connect the antenna's 75-ohm connector directly to your TV or FM
receiver.

Higher frequencies are noticeably affected by
obstructions.
In weak-signal areas you might get slightly
better reception by doing the following:
• For Channels 7-13 and FM radio, shorten the
telescoping elements slightly.
• For all other VHF channels, adjust the angle
of the telescoping elements.

To get the best performance from your
antenna, select a mounting location indoors,
on a flat surface, as high as pos sible, suc h as
on top of your TV. Make sure the front of the
antenna faces the general direction of the
nearest television or radio station's
broadcasting antenn a.
For the best results, make sure the antenna
is located away from obstructions such as
metal cabinets or bookshelves. Do not place
the antenna near any metal surface such as

a refrigerator, a met al door or wall, or a w ater
pipe hidden behind a wall. This greatly
reduces the antenna’s ability to receive
signals.
