Reception Troubleshooting
•
Are all of the cables connected properly? Connection issues are a common source of poor reception.
•
Is the power to the electronic booster turned on? (the light next to the switch will illuminate when this is working)
•
Is the booster on the antenna receiving 12v? (this should be checked at on the roof at the end of the coaxial cable with
a multimeter)
•
Has an auto
-
tune been conducted, with the country code set to AUSTRALIA.
Note: it is easy to confuse this with AUS-
TRIA on some TVs.
•
Is there a large obstruction like a tree trunk or a building directly in line of site between the transmitter and your anten-
na? If this is the case, seek another transmitter in a different direction or move your van to alleviate this.
•
Check for sources of electrical interference. LED lights, Air conditioners, washing machines, refrigerators
….
etc ca all
cause interference. Systematically turn these on and off to see if any of these is the culprit. If you do have an issue,
make sure you contact a licenced caravan mechanic to rectify the problem.
Note: A very common source of interfer-
ence is when the antenna cable and the power cable of your TV are bound together for neatness. This should never
be done.
•
Have you checked the Government website to check if there is TV signal available I your area?

This website will give you a good feel for whether reception in your area is a possibility or not and whether there are
multiple choices for transmitters in that position. It is not always completely definitive, and so if you are having difficul-
ties after looking at the website please contact us for further help.
