Entering the Low-Noise Block (LNB) Converter’s Local-Oscillator Frequency
Commercially available satellite systems employ so-called “general-purpose” LNB’s that employ a local-
oscillator frequency of 10,600 MHz for their upper band. In the event that your LNB uses some other
local-oscillator frequency, you may set up your receiver to accommodate it as follows:
•
Use the
p
and
q
keys to highlight the “LNB Local Freq“ field:
•
Press the MENU-key.
•
Use the numerical keys to enter the local-oscillator frequency
employed by your LNB.
•
Press the MENU-key to confirm your entry.
7.5.4 Checking
Signal
Strength
You should check the alignment of your satellite antenna on a regular basis if you want to have the best-
possible reception.
•
Use the
p
and
q
keys to highlight the “Signal Strength”
field and then press the MENU-key.
The legend “[STATUS]” will appear onscreen for a few seconds, when it will be
replaced by “[LOCK],” accompanied by a triangular figure. If the latter has only
yellow and red segments, then the received signal strength is weak.
