For general operation, please ensure that the system always has a clear view to the
sky.
If the satellite‘s signal beam is interrupted by obstacles such as mountains, buildings
or trees, the product will not function and no TV signal will be received.

Signal loss / Rain Fade
• The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusually heavy rainfall.
An optimal aligned antenna, along with the shortest possible cable run,
minimizes the chances of “rain fade”.
• Heavy snow accumulation on the antenna may reduce the satellite signal
strength; snow should be swept away as soon as possible.
• Tree foliage growth into the antenna’s line-of-sight to the satellite may result
in gradual loss of picture.
