Samsung 15-1634 Manuale Utente

OWNER’S MANUAL — Please read before using this equipment.

Your Radio Shack Amplified Omnidirectional 
VHF/UHFTV Antenna provides excellent 
reception of VHF/UHF TV channels in most 
viewing locations. The UV-protected housing 
is made of impact-resistant filled co-polymer, 
making the exterior resistant to weathering 
and color change. The antenna’s unique 
omnidirectional characteristics provide 
excellent reception in areas where 
broadcasts are received from different 
directions.

The built-in fixed FM trap helps prevent 
strong FM stations from interfering with TV 
Channels 2–13.

Many do-it-yourself and professional antenna 
installers are injured or killed each year by 
electric shock, because they fail to recognize 
overhead wires as being potentially lethal. 
Touching any part of the antenna mast or guy 
wire to these overhead wires is the same as 
touching the wires with your bare hand.

A very serious shock is almost sure to result 
when contacting an electrical wire. In the 
case of primary wires on the top of poles, the 
shock is like being struck by a bolt of 
lightning. Many power wires are within 20 to 
25 feet of the ground and could easily be 
touched by an assembled antenna and 
mast.

Please read and follow these important 
safety precautions:

• Be sure to select an antenna site well 

away from all overhead wires.

• Do not try to guess which overhead 

wires carry high voltage. Check with the 
power company.

• If you notice anything making contact 

with the overhead wires, call the power 
company to have it removed safely.

• Do not run the downlead cable over 

power wires.

• Get help from a qualified professional 

when removing the old antenna if there 
is any doubt of clearing overhead wires.

• Never install an antenna when it is 

windy.

• Be sure to do all assembly work on the 

ground, then raise the antenna.

• Make sure the antenna mast downlead 

cable is connected to suitable lightning 
arrestors.

• Use 8 (or larger) AWG ground wire 

between the mast and ground.

• Make sure the installation is secure. Use 

plenty of guy wires and new hardware.

This antenna system is designed to work 
properly when the power injector is 
connected to the antenna through a 75-ohm 
coax cable.

The power injector’s indicator lights to show 
that:

• DC power is supplied to the antenna

• there are no shorts in the connection 

between the power injector and antenna

The coax cable between the power injector 
and the antenna carries:

• DC power from the power injector to the 

amplifier board in the antenna

Use extreme caution when installing an outdoor 
antenna close to overhead wires. If the antenna 
starts to fall, let it go! If any part of the antenna 
makes contact with overhead power lines, 
touching the antenna, mast, cable or guy wires 
can cause electrocution and death. Call the 
power company to remove the antenna. Do not 
attempt to remove it yourself!
