The ANT751 is a Small antenna that is designed to receive , VHF high band channels 7 thru 13 and UHF band channels 14 thru 51.

All receivable Digital Broadcast Tv stations channels to the , east and south-south east , are UHF channels except for one - KEYC-Tv VHF high band channel 12 CBS.

The UHF channels are moderate to strong signal strengths in the Green and Yellow reception zones.

A ANT751 will receive the UHF channels.

KEYC is weak signal strength in the Red reception zone.

A ANT751 may not receive KEYC reliably.

To test reception of KEYC / and receive the UHF Tv channels.

Install a ANT751 Above the Peak of the Roof in such a manner that the roof and house are not blocking reception to the , east , south south-east.

Aim the ANT751 antenna at about 151 degree magnetic compass direction for reception of the UHF channels and test reception of KEYC.

Here is how to aim antennas , http://www.kyes.com/antenna/pointing/pointing.html.

It is important to install the ANT751 Above the roof , not just peaking over the top of the roof.

For 1 Tv connected use No splitter.

For 2 Tv's connected use a , HFS-2D , 2 way splitter.

For 3 Tv's connected use a , HFS-3D , 3 way splitter.

Buy the HFS splitters at http://www.solidsignal.com or http://www.hollandelectronics.com.

Here are some places to buy antennas and etc. .

____________________________

As always , trees and tree leaves , plants and plant leaves , have a negative effect on Tv reception , multi-path/reflections , absorbing , blocking , Tv reception and so do buildings and other obstructions including your own roof and house.

The best practice is to install the ANT751 antenna at a location that has the least amount to no amount of obstructions of any type or kind in the directions of reception including your own roof and house.

The Tv's Must Channel Scan for the Digital Broadcast Tv stations/channels , often named the 'Air Channels' or 'Antenna Channels' in the Tv Setup Menu because the Tv transmissions travel through the Air from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna.

Some Digital Tv's will Automatic channel scan for cable tv channels.

DO NOT channel scan for cable tv channels.

Go into the Tv Setup Menu and select 'Air Channels' ~ 'Antenna Channels'.

Scan for channels.

_____________________________________

Some satellite systems / can connect a Broadcast tv antenna to the satellite system.

Check with a Dish system installer.

And some satellite systems will not allow a Tv antenna to connect to the satellite system.
______________________


I recommend do not connect the Tv antenna to the satellite system so as to not have reception problems.

I recommend use separate coaxes and distribution hardware so as to avoid trouble.

With satellite service discontinued and disconnected remove the satellite distribution hardware.
Such as multi-switches , diplexers , splitters , amplifiers , power injectors , power supplies and etc. .

Yes the coaxes that are in or on the house can be used for the antenna system.

Yes the satellite system coaxes can be used for the antenna system.
