cell phone. For best results, you want to place your phone where the phone’s signal meter displays

in the middle of the signal meter range or less so that it can indicate as you rotate the External

Antenna to the optimum direction. If it is reading too high, move the phone farther from the Indoor

Antenna. (Note: if you’re using signal bars to measure signal strength, turn off your LTE during this

process)

Record the number of signal bars or dBm________(A) on your cell phone. You can use our YX699

RF Signal Meter or an application on a smart phone to get the dBm. Leave the phone in exactly the

same place and pointing in the same direction for the following steps. Note the direction External

Antenna starting position ________________.

Rotate the External Antenna 90 degrees and then record the phone signal bars ______(B).

Continue to rotate the antenna another 90 degrees in the same direction and record the phone

signal bars _________(C).

Again, rotate the antenna another 90 degrees in the same direction and again record the phone

signal bars _________(D).

If you desire to optimize further, then look for the two highest signal bar readings above and move

the antenna between these two points to nd the highest signal bars reading.

Look for the highest reading above. Set the antenna to that position and tighten the antenna to

the mast of your choosing. We suggest PVC pipe that is at least 1.5” or J-Pole (part # YX014, not

included).

Before drilling any holes into a wall to run your cable,

make sure you know where existing electrical wiring is

located. Drilling into live electrical wiring could cause an

electrical shock and sever the wire.
