Installing Your FM Pro
When mounting the antenna outdoors or indoors,
remember to install the FM Pro HORIZONTALLY, parallel
to the ground. DO NOT INSTALL FM PRO VERTICALLY!
NOTE: The FM Pro may be painted to match the decor of
your home. We recommend using a primer coat before
applying your color coat. Do not use a lead-based paint.

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.
75 Ohm Push-Button Connection
If your Radio tuner or receiver has push-button terminals
for FM, you will need to use the supplied RED 75 Ohm
matching transformer. First, slide the RED 75 Ohm
matching transformer into the connector on the FM lead
of the antenna. Next slide the RED wire into the terminal
marked “FM 75 Ohm”. Lastly connect the BLACK wire into
the terminal marked “FM Ground” or “GND”.
See Fig. 2.

Making Connections
With Your New FM Pro
Radio tuners and receivers can have different connections
for your new FM Pro antenna. Please find the connection
that best matches your tuner or receiver and follow the
listed instructions.
Power Connection:
Your FM Pro uses a power injector to send power to the
antenna through the antenna wire. This allows you to
install the antenna without a power line. Follow the steps
below to connect the power injector to your system.
See Fig. 4 on page 2.
1. Connect the antenna cable (not supplied) coming
from the FM Pro to the power injector on the terminal
labeled “TO ANTENNA”
2. Connect the short black cable on the power injector
labeled “TO RECEIVER” to your radio tuner or receiver
as listed in the FM Connections section located on
Page 4.
3. Plug the attached power supply into any working
electrical outlet.

Important Safety Precautions
Use extreme caution when installing or removing
an outdoor antenna close to overhead wires.
If the antenna starts to fall, let it go! If any part of
the antenna makes contact with overhead power lines,
touching the antenna or the antenna cable can cause
electrocution and death. Call the power company
to remove the antenna. Do not attempt to remove
it yourself!
