PURE DRX-601EX, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 21 / 24

Your DRX-601EX is supplied with a telescopic DAB aerial. This is an indoor aerial which is designed to give good reception in areas with good to
moderate DAB signal strength. In areas with poor DAB coverage or poor signal strength you may want to consider using a loft mounted or external
aerial. To find out about coverage in your area, see page 13.
Aerial advice
4-element Aerial
Dipole Aerial
The following options may help you improve reception in your area and are available from our website, see page 19.
1. Telescopic Aerial Optimise the position of your telescopic aerial by extending it as high as possible and pointing it vertically. Use the Signal
Strength meter to fine tune the aerial placement, see page 9.
2. TV/FM Aerial If you have an externally mounted TV or FM aerial it may provide a stronger signal than an indoor aerial but as they are not tuned
for the digital radio frequency range and are pointed at your local TV/FM transmitter, reception may be no better. The standard TV or FM RF
connector cannot be plugged into your DRX-601EX directly, you will need to use an RF to F-type adapter. You may also find that you need to use
a signal booster if you want to use the aerial for both TV or FM and DAB reception.
3. External or loft mounted DAB Aerial Two main types are used. These types of aerials may require professional installation:
Dipole - for use in marginal signal areas, this type is omnidirectional and should increase the strength of all DAB stations
being received.
4-element aerial - for use in marginal or poor signal areas, this type is directional and has high gain. Like a TV or FM aerial
this type needs to point at the transmitter. Installation requires someone to move the aerial while you monitor signal
strength. If you receive signals from multiple transmitters you should point your aerial at the one which gives the best signal
for the services to which you want to listen.
4. Signal booster This is a signal amplifier which connects into an aerial cable and boosts the strength of the received signal.
If your aerial provides marginal reception, even after adjusting its position, a booster may improve your reception.
