ONE ANTENNA/ONE RECEIVER SYSTEM
If you are using a single antenna with a single receiver, “Installation A” shows the proper con-
nections. 
Caution: To avoid damage to your receiver and/or the amplifier power injector, carefully check
all the points listed below.
• Do not separate the amplifier from the DC block. The DC block must be between the
amplifier and the 300-to-75 ohm transformer at the antenna.
• Remove the DC block and the plastic tube that connects the DC block and the amplifier
when using with a satellite or powered antenna.
• Follow the connection labeling on the amplifier/DC block unit: 
TO ANT
TO POWER
 
INJEC-
TOR
. The amplifier will not receive power if they are reversed.
• Follow the connection labeling on the power injector: 
TO TV
TO AMPLIFIER
. Your TV/radio
receiver will be damaged if they are reversed.
Note: The In-Line Signal Amplifier is designed for use with F-type connectors. For some anten-
na systems (such as scanners, for example), you will have to use connection adapters or make
a special cable.
