4. Connect the aerial downlead to the ‘F’ socket on the back of the
aerial (be careful not to over tighten the F connector) see Fig. 5.
5. Slide the weather boot over the ‘F’ connector and socket to
make a good seal - see Fig. 6.
Make sure that the coax cable is taped to the mast.
Use insulating tape, to secure the the coax downlead to
the mast.
6. Finally connect the aerial to your TV or other reception
device and check the picture. Fine adjust the direction

No picture:
Check all connections from aerial to TV.
Poor picture:
Check all connections from aerial to TV.
Check aerial is properly aligned to the correct transmitter.
If the aerial has been loft mounted try mounting outside.
Make sure new digital coax cable has been used
throughout the installation.
Check the transmitter signal is not obstructed by nearby trees or
buildings.
If in a very weak signal area or for long cable runs,
installing a masthead amplifier will improve the signal.
If in a strong signal area the signal strength may need to be
reduced by fitting an attenuator.
