There are four screws on the back to run the 3 antenna wires to.  Two of the wires are paired together, the third one is not.  Question: Which wire goes where?  Looking at this model on the net, people have it connected in different ways.  Looking from the back, I have seen the two paired ones connected in the middle, then others to the left, others to the right.  Help!  Icon_crazy
