1. Connect the coax downlead from the 

antenna to the 

ANT

 jack on the power 

injector.

2.

If your TV has an F-connector, connect 
the short piece of coax from the power 
injector to your TV’s VHF/UHF 75-ohm 
F-connector.

If your TV has screw terminals for VHF/
UHF connection, connect a 75-to-300 
ohm transformer (not supplied, available 
at RadioShack) between the power 
injector and the VHF/UHF terminals.

If your TV has a 75-ohm VHF connection 
and a 300-ohm UHF connection, 
connect a signal splitter (not supplied, 
available at RadioShack) between the 

power injector and the TV’s VHF/UHF 
connections.

3. Insert the supplied AC adapter’s small 

plug into the power injector’s 

DC 12V

 

jack. Plug the adapter into a standard 
AC outlet. The power injector’s indicator
