TIP! Still not sure which way is south or where to place your Home
Antenna? Look
up your location on an online mapping Web site that offers
satellite views of street addresses where you
can easily see which way is
south,
and what window may offer an unobstructed view of the sky.
Another easy method is to start at any window, then work from window to
window in a simple pattern to find the window gives the best signal strength.
Note
that the antenna must also have an unobstructed view. No trees or
buildings blocking its aim.
If the antenna is aimed through a window, be
aware that blinds, screens, or any other non-glass elements such as thermal
insulation can sometimes cause reception issues. If this is the case, you may
want to
use another window or place the antenna outside of the window.
If you find a window
that gives you good
signal strength, you
can place the antenna
on the windowsill. The antenna may need
to
be placed on something to raise it above
the level of the window frame.
If you don't have a window where you
receive a consistent signal,
or placing
the antenna in a window is not a practical
solution
for you, BETTER reception
can
be achieved by placing the antenna
outside
on a window ledge, porch, table,
or patio. The location you choose should
provide the antenna with a clear view of
