NOTE

If FM interference is a problem in your area, it is

recommended that you temporarily hook up the pre-

amplifier near the TV for ease of tuning the variable FM

trap.

boot collar(s) on the preamplifier and antenna(s).

injector jack marked “ANTENNA”. See figure 4.

receivers to jack marked “TV”. See figure 4.
