Performance Specifications
Power Connection:
Plug the small end of the included power supply into the
jack located on
See Fig. 4. Plug the large end of the
power supply into any working electrical outlet.
NOTE: When plugged into an electrical outlet, your TERK
antenna will remain “ON”. This is not a problem because
the AC adapter uses very little power. To turn “OFF” the
power supply, it must be plugged into a switched outlet.
Some late model radio tuners and receivers come with a
switched outlet located on the back. It is safe to use this
outlet for the TERK power supply.

Radio tuners and receivers can have different connections
for your new HDR-I antenna. Please find the connection
that best matches your tuner or receiver and follow the
listed instructions.
FM Connections:
75 Ohm Coaxial:
Your TERK antenna has a Slip-On Coaxial connector on
the FM lead. Simply slide the connector onto the coaxial
terminal.
See Fig. 1.

AM connections. If your radio tuner or receiver has a
Push-Button connection, simply slip the bare wires into
the push button connections. For a Screw Terminal
connection, wrap the bare wires around the screw
terminals and tighten. Please note that the black wire
should be connected to ground (GND)
