Winegard GM-1518 User Manual
Getting Started:
The Carryout antenna comes set from the factory for DIRECTV standard programming. To set the
antenna for any other programming provider, you will need to remove the dome and set the switches
according to the appropriate diagram below. Otherwise, proceed to installing the Carryout handle.
Installing the dome:
Place the Carryout Dome over the unit so that the Carryout decal on the Dome is directly above the
connections on the base of the unit. Line up the holes in the dome with the inserts in the Carryout
base. Insert all of the dome screws except the two nearest to the cable connections on the base. Do
not tighten the screws at this time.
Install the Carryout handle:
Using the two holes nearest these cable connections, install the Carryout handle. Installing the handle
here will help protect the cable connections from accidental damage.
If using DIRECTV, simply remove the two screws nearest the Coax and Power connectors on the
base and use these screws to install the handle.
Tighten all of the dome screws using a
Phillips screwdriver.
