Features:

Advantages of Antenna Tilting:
-
Accurate positioning of an over the air (OTA) antenna
provides the strongest signal possible, allowing you to tune in the weakest
stations.
-
Long boom, high gain Yagi style antennas have a narrow beamwidth
in both the horizontal and vertical planes and must be positioned
correctly in both planes for best results.
-
Vertical position is most important in areas where
nearby mountains ridges and hills block direct line of sight. Vertical tilting allows you to pin point the direction of
reflected signals.
-
Remote controlled positioning allows you to easily fine
tune the optimum angle of your antenna in the comfort of your home.

All aluminum construction to reduce weight and resist corrosion. All pieces are
precision machined and TIG welded for maximum strength. |
Stainless steel pivot shaft rides on long life composite sleeve bearings. The
bearings are located in each flange of the swivel bracket. This gives the pivot
assembly greater stability due to the widely spaced bearings. The entire assembly
is impervious to corrosion. |

|
The 8" stroke actuator is designed specifically for outdoor use and will provide years of trouble free operation. Internal reed sensors provide
feedback to controller for accurate and repeatable positioning. |
The programmable satellite dish positioner provides accurate remote control of
the tilter. Up to 100 positions can be stored in non-volatile memory. A digital
readout provides a numerical reference of the antenna position. |

|
Simple infrared remote allows you to move the tilter in fine steps using the
left/right arrow buttons. Preset positions are accessed with the up/down arrow
buttons. Preset positions are programmed from the remote. |
Controller has easy to use locking wire terminals. Four wires are
used to control actuator, two for motor power (36VDC), and two for the feedback
sensors. |

|
Unit ships fully assembled and ready to install. Only other items needed are the
controller and 4-wire cable. |
Installation is simple, just insert the tilter assembly into your rotator (such
as the Channel Master 9521) and
tighten the clamps. Your antenna is mounted to the tilter pivot using the
included 1" U-bolts. |
