the desired tuner output connector and your TV set 

c.  Be sure to perform a channel scan before you watch the TV program.

3.  Poor picture quality 

a.  Confirm that the antenna is pointing in the correct direction. Perform 

an "Auto Scan" to check the signal RF Level when aligning the 
antenna.

verify that it is operating properly.

information.  

b.  Press the CC/CS button on the remote control to check for closed
