Antenna Boost
The antenna boost switch will select between watching the TV from the roof
antenna or when parked and hooked to shore cable.
To watch TV from the roof antenna:
Push the button in. The LED will illuminate. The input to the TV is set to the
roof antenna.
To watch TV from shore cable:
Set the button to the out position. The LED will be off. The input to the TV
is set to shore cable.
TV Antenna
The television antenna is a manual crank style antenna with built in electronics that use 12 Volts
DC to "boost" signal strength. Signals that are weak or fuzzy can be amplified by pressing the black
selector button. When using the antenna boost, the green LED will be illuminated. The antenna and
booster work together to provide the best possible picture for most situations. Certain conditions occur
when no amplification is needed, and in fact may make the picture worse. The television station will
send a signal that resembles the waves or rings of water from a rock thrown into a still pond. The radi-
ating television signal can hit an object such as a mountain and come back. This results in a double
image. The antenna will receive a signal from the initial pass, and then receive an additional signal
from the rebound resulting in a split or double image. In this case, the picture may be improved by no
amplification or even lowering the antenna.
CAUTION:
Do not move motorhome with antenna in the raised or partially raised position and
risk damage by tree limbs or wires. Worm gear damage or breakage may result.
WARNING:
Before raising antenna, make an outside visual inspection for any obstructions or
overhead electrical wires. Damage to the antenna, severe shock, personal injury or
death can occur from inadequate clearance.
