Avoiding Water Damage

Water Damage Prevention:

At the point where your coaxial cable lead enters the house, you
should allow for some slack in the coaxial cable as a “drip loop.”
This will prevent moisture from running down the coaxial cable
and entering the house.

Run the coaxial cable approximately six inches below the wall
entry point and then turn it upwards towards this spot (see Fig 9).
Any moisture that accumulates on the coaxial cable will drip off
in the bend instead of running into the house. You should seal the
point where the cable enters your home with a rubber weather
insulator or silicone caulking (not included). An “F” connector wall
plate can be used inside the home to cover the inside portion of
the hole. You can typically find an “F” connector wall plate at any
local electronics or hardware store.

If your radio has a connection not mentioned in this manual,
contact Terk for the appropriate adapter.

If your radio has both separate antenna connections for AM

and FM:

Use the included Diplexer to make the connection. Connect the

coaxial cable from the Power Injector labeled “FM / DIPLEXER”
to the supplied Diplexer (Band Separator) to the terminal
labeled “POWER INJECTOR”

Then, connect the coaxial cable from the Diplexer labeled

“FM” to the FM input “F” connector on your radio.Connect the
twin lead wire from the Diplexer labeled “AM” to the AM input
on your radio. Note that the wire with the white stripe is the
positive (+) connection. If your radio’s AM connection is color
coded black and red, connect the wire with the white stripe to
the red connector.
