About Your SS-3000 Antenna

Installation

Thank you for choosing the low profile SS-3000 antenna. Winegard antennas
are designed to deliver sharp, clear, high definition signal reception. At
Winegard, our engineering department is dedicated to designing antennas
that embrace both the latest technology and the aesthetics of any viewing
environment. The SS-3000 installs in minutes; it’s easy to use and simple to
adjust. Before installing your antenna, please remove all parts from the box,
and read the manual carefully.

Attaching the clips to the Reflector
1. Lay the reflector flat on the table.
2. Grip the reflector with your thumb and index finger, and bend the
reflector’s top and bottom edges towards you. (See Fig. 2, 3.)
3. With your other hand, grasp the clip, and attach it to the reflector at the
two notches.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all four clips.

Attaching the Reflector to the Antenna
1. Starting from the right side, slide the clip attached to the reflector diagonally
into the notch at the back of the antenna. (See Fig. 4, 5.)
2. Once the clip is pushed in, slide it to the side so that it forms a 90 degree
angle to the antenna’s edge. (See Fig. 6.)
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all four clips.

Attaching the Antenna with reflector to the Base
1. Route the 6’ mini coax cable through the base, and screw it securely to
the antenna.
2. Slide the antenna with reflector onto the base.
3. Using a screwdriver, slightly tighten the two screws, to secure the antenna
to the base. (See Fig. 7.)

Operating Your SS-3000

Troubleshooting

Locating your SS-3000 Antenna
Your antenna is a precision instrument and should be placed in a location that
is best for receiving TV signals.

No picture, or the tuner is displaying no “signal.”
1. Make sure the antenna is connected to the correct “Antenna in” input on the 	
set-top box or TV.
2. Rotate the antenna around the room to find the best reflected signal,
keeping in mind that the best reflected signal may be behind the antenna.
	 (See page 6 for directions on how to use the web to locate the broadcast
tower location. Rotate the antenna base up to 360° until you receive the
best signal possible).
3. For houses with aluminum siding/insulation or stucco, place the antenna
near a window to minimize interference.

Your antenna can be placed on top of any TV for ease of adjustment.
Operating your SS-3000 Antenna
Positioning the antenna properly will give you optimal digital television (DTV)
reception, especially in areas of high multipath. In such areas, repositioning
the antenna a few inches could mean the difference between an excellent DTV
stream or picture loss.
First, point the antenna towards a window in the direction of your TV stations
(if possible). If this fails to give you a solid picture, slowly rotate the antenna in
small increments up to 360 degrees until you receive a picture. The antenna
was designed to pick up direct and reflected signals from interior walls. Keep
in mind that the best reflected signal may be behind the antenna or off a
building outside.
NOTE: You must do a “Rescan” of the TV channels each time the antenna is
moved. It is best to utilize the Signal Strength Meter of your set-top box or an
HDTV television with built-in tuner to optimize the position of the antenna.
You can use the following Web tool to find where the broadcast towers are
located from your home address:
1. Go to www.antennaweb.org, and click “Choose an Antenna”.
2. Enter your home address, and click “Submit.”
3. Click “View Street Level Map” to see which direction you should point
your antenna.
Please Note:
1. Do not place your antenna near large metal objects or appliances that could 	
create interference.
2. Do not lift your antenna by its receiving elements or place objects on them.
3. Late model televisions have on-screen menu controls for viewing VHF/UHF
“Off-Air” or cable broadcasts. Please ensure that this menu control is at the
proper “Off-Air” position.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What do I need to get HDTV?
A. A High Definition television with built-in or set-top HD receiver.
Q. Why do I need an antenna?
A. This antenna will get you local high definition broadcast channels proving
you live within 30 miles of the broadcast tower and that there are no
obstacles between you and the broadcast tower that could interfere with
reception (see note below).
Q. Can I use this antenna in a basement?
A. It is not recommended. Broadcast signals cannot penetrate into basements
due to their lower elevation.
Q. How can I get channels above channel 13?
A. Tuners have both cable and antenna modes. Access the proper on screen
TV menu and switch from Cable/CATV mode to ANT/AIR mode to receive
these channels.
Please Note:
Other variables, which are not related to antenna performance, can affect your
reception. These include distance from the source transmitting the desired
station, man-made and natural conditions.
Example: Obstacles such as buildings between the transmitting source and
your antenna can affect your reception.
