TROUBLESHOOTING & PIXELATION INFORMATION

Digital TV sets now require the received signal level 

to be within its operating boundaries. A signal level 

between 45dBμV and 80dBμV is most ideal and will 

present a perfect picture. If the signal is outside of 

these levels, pixilation will occur whether it is too 

much or too little.
The most likely causes of pixilation will be poor 

signal collection. Though in some cases, having too 

large an antenna for your distribution network, or an 

amplifier that is not required, can cause too much 

signal for your TV. This can be reduced easily with the 

introduction of a splitter.
To fix/prevent pixilation you can try the following:

•  Check antenna direction;

•  Check for sources of interference and noise-  

 power cables, exhaust fans, air conditioners,  

 etc. try to avoid running coax cable within close  

 proximity to these;
• Check all connections in the system for wear,  

 corrosion and proper termination;
• Start behind the TV, then the coaxial cable  

 connection to the antenna’s boom, before  

 continuing through the distribution network;
• Try re-terminating connection points- this  

 should eliminate any poor terminations – the  

 most common cause in new installations. Again  

 start at the rear of the TV, the antenna coaxial  

 cable connection, then through the distribution  

 network.
