If you do not feel comfortable or competent to install this antenna we
recommend that you seek the assistance of a qualified professional
antenna installer.
Read the instructions for this device thoroughly before attempting
installation.
The installation or dismantling of any antenna near power lines is dan-
gerous. Each year hundreds of people are killed or injured while
attempting to install or service antennas. For your safety and proper
antenna installation, read and follow all safety precautions.
Choose an installation site for safety as well as performance.
All electric power lines, cable lines and telephone lines look alike.To
be safe, assume ANY overhead line can kill you.
Do not place an antenna where it could potentially fall on to, or blow
into a power line. If in doubt call your electric provider. Let them
review your site.
Outdoor antennas should be grounded with an approved lighting arrest-
ing device. Local codes may apply. Use 8 AWG or larger ground wire.
Height or other restrictions on antennas may apply to your installa-
tion depending on your proximity to an airport, or local ordinances.
