Checking Amplifier Performance
The TV signals available to an RV are entirely
dependent on its location in relation to the
transmitter (tower). Signals may vary from
strong to no usable signal at all. We recommend
that the TV system be checked out in an area
known to have good TV reception.
To check the antenna amplifier, raise the
antenna, select a TV channel and rotate the
antenna for best picture. Then turn off the
amplifier power switch. If the antenna amplifier
is working properly, the TV picture will now be
degraded (snowy). When you turn the switch
back on, the picture should again be sharp.
CABLE TV HOOK-UP
The cable television connector is located in
the utility compartment.
TV DIGITAL SATELLITE
SYSTEM – MANUAL
–If Equipped
The Digital Satellite Television System
allows you to receive TV programs directly from
satellite to your coach. The programs are
transmitted in digital format so the quality is
equal to laser disc or CD.
We recommend that you read the satellite dish
manual thoroughly to understand the system
completely before attempting any setups or
adjustments.
•
The coach must be level before attempting to
aim the antenna dish.
•
There must be a clear “line of sight” to the
satellite. Mountains, buildings, trees,
telephone poles and other obstructions can all
block the satellite signal from reaching the
dish.
•
Press the SAT switch on the Video Selector
Panel to connect the TV to the Satellite
system.
