PLEASE NOTE: To power the meter for measuring
DVB-T signals you will need to insert a 9V PP3
battery (see fitting instructions below).
1. Connect a cable
†
from the UHF Digital
TV Aerial to the connection marked
antenna on the DVB-T/SAT Finder.
Optionally, to view and check the signal being
received, connect the DTV receiver or Digital
Freeview Box ANT. IN socket to the F connection
marked Receiver on the Finder
†
.
2. Slide the switch on the side of the Finder to the
TV position the green power indicator LED
should light up.
3. Turn the sensitivity control fully clockwise for
maximum sensitivity.
If at anytime all the LED indicators are lit you can
turn the sensitivity down for more accuracy.
4. As a starting position, point your aerial in the
same direction as your neighbours’ aerials or
alternatively use a compass bearing*.
Gradually rotate the aerial in a horizontal plane
to either side of your starting point until you
find a position in which the most LED’s are lit
on the Finder.
5. If you find more than one position giving high
signal levels select the one with widest zone
of signal strength and position the aerial in the
centre of this zone.
