Over-the-Air TV Antennas

RoadStar Antenna

Warning

Do not snap the antenna head and pedestal together until after the pedestal

has already been installed on the roof!

Roof Location Requirements

Choose a location for the wall plate/power supply. Keep in mind that a coax cable

will have to run from the antenna to the power supply and from the power supply

to each television. A 12 V connection must also be made to the power supply.

en, choose a location for the antenna that meets the clearance requirements

of the antenna: a minimum distance of 24″ from the center of the antenna

to the front of vehicle and a minimum distance of 18″ from the center of the

antenna to the nearest obstruction and to the edge of the roof.

Choosing a Mounting Option

e RoadStar antenna can be mounted two dierent ways. e antenna

can be mounted with the coax cable running down through the pedestal

and directly into the ceiling (Mounting Option 1), or the antenna can be

mounted with the coax cable running out the side of the pedestal and into

the ceiling via a cable entry plate (Mounting Option 2). Choose a mounting

option based on the desired point of cable entry.

Mounting Option 1 Tips

If installing the RoadStar antenna so that cables enter the vehicle directly

beneath the antenna, consider the following tips:

1. Run a coax cable up through the ceiling, gasket, and pedestal, and

connect to the cable running from the antenna head (see g. 4.17A).

2. Place the rectangular gasket in the slot on the underside of the pedestal.

3 After sealing the pedestal to the roof, push the cable slack downward

through the pedestal.

4. Twist the antenna head back and forth while pushing it onto the pedestal.

e pedestal should engage with the snap ring inside the antenna head.

5. While applying pressure, rotate the head until feeling the grooves in the

head line up with the grooves in the pedestal.

6. Push down again; you should hear the head click into place. Check that

the scribe line on the pedestal is no longer visible and that the antenna

head is fully seated. If the scribe line is visible, the head is not fully seated

on the pedestal. Repeat steps 4–6 to connect the antenna head to the

antenna pedestal.

Depending on the desired point of

cable entry, the coax cable can be run

two different ways during installation

(see fig. 4.10).

Once the antenna head has been

snapped onto the pedestal, the antenna

head cannot be removed without

incurring damage.
