The Signal Antenna is receiving too much signal
from a nearby cell tower (probably another
service provider) and the Base Unit is operating
with reduced gain (range). Try making one or
more of the following adjustments:
1. Slightly adjust the position angle of the Signal
Antenna (about 20-45 degrees from vertical) so
that it is pointing toward the closest tower.
2. Move the Signal Antenna to another part of the
attic.
3. Purchase and install a directional Signal
antenna (see page 2) to pull in your providers’
signal and not the closest tower’s signal.
4. Contact a professional installer for assistance.
