If you want to receive digital channels from an over-the-air antenna in addition to your dish
antenna programming, connect the over-the-air antenna to your dish antenna.
• The O VER - THE -A IR A NTENNA I N connection on your receiver's back panel can be used
to receive and view programming on the TV from an over-the-air antenna.
• Connect a VHF/UHF over-the-air antenna to the O VER - THE -A IR A NTENNA I N port. Peel
off the black sticker (found at the beginning of this User’s Guide) and affix it to the
cable close to where it connects to the back of the receiver.
• You can add local over-the-air channels to the receiver’s channels lists and assign
them network affiliations. Once you have done this, you can access the channels via
the Program Guide or the Browse Banner similar to accessing satellite channels.
Note: The type of antenna required depends on the channels used by, and the locations
of, the local broadcasters for your area. Visit www.antennaweb.org or contact a
professional installer to help you select a suitable antenna.
Make sure to follow the antenna installation instructions correctly. Ground the
dish antenna per the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any state and local
electrical codes.
The audio/video quality on local over-the-air channels depends on the distance
and terrain between the broadcast station and your home, and on the
placement and quality of the over-the-air TV antenna you use. If you have
questions about over-the-air channels, contact the broadcaster, not DISH
Network.
