Linear TV Antenna EXA 1000 User Manual

The EXA-1000 Remote Antenna is designed to enhance the radio  
range of Linear’s receivers. This antenna can be connected to  
the “F” connector on many Linear receivers to improve their range  
when they must be located in poor signal reception locations.  
Usually an increase of 20-30% range can be expected. The  
versatile EXA-1000 can be mounted in a variety of ways. A 2-inch  
U-bolt is supplied for post or pipe mounting, or the U-bolt holes  
in the Base Plate can be used to screw the antenna to a wall  
or vertical wood brace or beam.  
STEP 1 Identify Parts. Lay out and identify all  
the parts as shown. Check the parts list to be sure all  
items were included in the kit.

provisions; and a five-foot, 75-ohm coaxial cable. The cable  
connects to the antenna base on one end and the receivers “F”  
connector on the other. If the antenna must be mounted further  
than five feet from the receiver, an extension cable of up to a  
maximum of 25 feet may be used instead of the five foot cable  
supplied. Because of the cable resistance, the performance of  
the EXA-1000 may be degraded by using longer than a 25 foot  
cable.

Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important  
need in portable wireless signalling. However, there are some limitations which  
must be observed.  
For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and  
Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore  
limited range.

A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by  
radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.  
Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.  
Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected  
interference or fault.

A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale
