How It Works
Wilson’s 13 dB 800 MHz Yagi Antenna will collect the cell tower signal and send it through
the cable to an amplifi er or directly to the cell phone or cellular data card. When the cell
phone or cellular data card transmits, the signal is transferred to an amplifi er or directly to
the antenna and broadcast back to the cell tower.
Antenna Adapter
An 18-inch external adapter is required to connect the cell phone or cellular data card
to the Yagi antenna. The external adapter is cell phone/data card specifi c and may be
purchased through a local retailer. Refer to Wilson’s Adapter Guide to identify the right
adapter for your cell phone or cellular data card. The Adapter Guide is available through a
local retailer. It is also available on our web site, www.wilsonelectronics.com, or you may
call Technical Support at 866-294-1660.

Package Contents
Wilson Yagi (#301111) contents include (A) Yagi antenna with N-Female End Connector,
(B) 2 - U-Bolts, (C) 2 - Pipe Brackets, (D) 4 - 1/4” Split-Lock Washers, (E) 4 - 1/4”-20 nuts.
Antenna Installation
The Yagi antenna should be mounted horizontally with the elements vertical. The included
mounting bracket is adjustable and will accommodate pipe diameters from ½” to 2” (pipe
not included). Mount the Yagi so that there is 3 feet of clearance in all directions around it.
Position the Yagi so that it has the most unobstructed line of sight to the cellular service
provider’s strongest signal. If you are using a wireless amplifi er, make sure the Yagi is not
pointing across your own roof.
Warning: Lightning protection is recommended for all installations (Wilson Part
#859902). Take extreme care to ensure that neither you nor the antenna comes
near any electric power lines.

Adjusting the Antenna for Maximum Performance
To adjust the Yagi antenna for best performance, connect it to your cell phone with an
external adapter and a length of coaxial cable. External antenna adapters and coaxial
cables are sold separately (see the back cover). Put the cell phone in test mode and
turn the Yagi in 10-degree increments while checking the cell phone’s signal level. At
each point you may need to wait a few seconds as your cell phone updates. To fi nd your
phone’s test mode, visit www.wilsonelectronics.com. Signal readings usually appear as a
negative number (for example, -86). The larger the number, the more powerful the signal
(-75 is stronger than -84).
Important: If you are using a wireless amplifi er, be sure the Yagi is not pointing
across the building in which you are trying to get coverage. The antenna should
point away from the building to help prevent oscillation (feedback).
