4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to assemble and install your Yeceny WA-2608B antenna. For a visual guide, please refer to the installation video below.

4.1. Assembly Steps

1. Install Main Antenna Directors: Carefully attach the 8 director elements to the main antenna boom. These elements are designed for tool-free snap-on installation. Ensure they are securely locked into place.

   

2. Fix Directors and Spread VHF Dipole/Reflectors: Once the directors are attached, fix them in position. Spread out the antenna's VHF dipole and reflector elements. These are typically located at the rear of the main antenna unit.

   

3. Attach Motor Bolster: Secure the motor bolster to the main antenna unit using the provided M5*25MM screw. Ensure the motor is firmly attached to allow for stable 360-degree rotation.
4. Connect Coaxial Cable: Connect the 60 ft RG6 coaxial cable to the F-connector on the main antenna unit. Ensure the connection is tight. Slide the waterproof cap over the connection to protect it from moisture.

4.2. Mounting and Connection

1. Mount the Antenna: Install the assembled antenna onto a mounting pole (not included) in a suitable outdoor location such as a roof, attic, chimney, or eave. Ensure the pole is sturdy and securely anchored.

   

2. Connect to Control Box: Route the other end of the 60 ft RG6 coaxial cable from the antenna to the 'ANT' input on the control box. Connect the power supply to the control box and plug it into an electrical outlet.

   

3. Connect to TV(s): Connect your television(s) to the 'TV1' and/or 'TV2' outputs on the control box using additional coaxial cables (not included). The antenna supports connecting up to two TVs simultaneously without needing an external splitter.
