RCA TV Antenna ANT525 User Guide

Amplified Indoor Antenna  
ANT525 User’s Guide  
Welcome!  
Note about digital channels  
Thank you for choosing an RCA amplified antenna. RCA amplified antennas are  
designed to give you the sharpest, clearest picture you can get. All RCA antennas  
are easy to set up and use. Before you get started, remove all the parts from the  
box and read this manual.  
All RCA antennas are designed to receive both analog and digital signals. To  
display digital signals on your TV, you’ll need to have the right equipment: either a  
TV that is capable of decoding digital signals or a digital converter box.  
Finding the best location for the antenna  
Before you connect the antenna, determine the best spot in your home for  
optimum reception. Visit www.antennaweb.org to see where your local broadcasts  
are coming from. Then, try as much as possible to avoid obstructions between  
these transmitters and your antenna.  
Troubleshooting  
I have a cable ready TV. Why am I not getting any channels above 13?  
The tuners inside of cable ready TVs have two modes. One mode is for cable and  
the other mode is for antenna. When the TV is in cable mode, and you are using  
an antenna, you will not be able to receive any channels above 13. To fix this,  
simply access the menu of your TV and switch the TV from Cable/CATV mode  
to ANT/AIR mode.  
Note: Many times the best location for the antenna is close to a window.

I have my TV in a metal cabinet. Will the antenna work for me?  
Any large metal objects will prevent the antenna signal from reaching the antenna.  
You must place the antenna outside of or above the metal cabinet.  
My home has aluminum siding/insulation. Where should I place my antenna?  
Place the antenna near a window to minimize interference and improve your  
reception.  
Connecting the antenna to your TV  
Once you’ve found the best place for your antenna, connect it to your TV.  
1. Connect the coaxial cable included to the coaxial cable jack on the back of the  
ANT525.  
Can I use my antenna in a basement?  
TV signals usually cannot penetrate into basement locations due to their lower  
elevation.  
2. Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to your TV’s antenna input.  
Please Note: Other variables, which are not related to antenna performance, can  
effect your reception. These include distance from the source transmitting the  
desired station, and man-made and natural conditions. Example: Obstacles such as  
buildings between the transmitting source and your antenna.  
Note: If your TV’s antenna input is already connected to a satellite receiver, cable box, or digital  
converter, connect the ANT525’s coaxial cable to the antenna input jack on that device.  
3. Insert the power adapter into the DC jack on the back of the antenna. Plug the  
other end into a wall outlet or power strip.  
Important: This power unit is intended to be correctly oriented in a vertical or floor mount  
position.
