Winegard exterior cable/TV receptacle (WA-1024)
available for easy coax connection into cab.
STEP 3. Connect coax from receiver to TV.
STEP 4. Plug in the receiver and TV.
STEP 5. Turn TV and receiver ON.
STEP 6. Tune TV to ch. 3 or 4 (output from receiver).
STEP 7. Determine azimuth (compass heading) and
elevation required for your position. Refer to Quick
Reference Guide or receiver manual.
STEP 8. Loosen elevation clamp knobs. Set antenna
elevation to correct elevation. Align degree of elevation
required with pointer washer at the clamp knob. See

IMPORTANT
NOTE: Stand away from your truck/RV (15' min.) to
find the correct azimuth. The metal in your truck/RV
can give you an incorrect reading.
STEP 10. Raise the antenna so that it has clear view of
the satellite, tighten the pipe elevation clamp. See
Figure 8. This keeps pipe from sliding down.
