Digital TV Reception Trouble Shooting Guide
• The received signal may be too weak to allow the digital TV receiver to reliably ‘lock’ to
the desired signal and generate a stable picture.
Please check antenna & cabling or contact your local TV antenna installer.
• ‘Impulse Noise’ interference from household appliances such as lights, refrigerators,
washing machines, electric stoves etc may cause pictures to break up and audio to mute
or distort momentarily
In the first instance, replace antenna fly-lead with a quality RG6 or RG59 Quad Shield 75 ohm
coaxial cable fly lead. If problem persists, check / improve antenna & cabling or contact your local TV
antenna installer.
•A masthead amplifier may be ‘over-boosting’ the antenna signal, which is overloading
the DTV tuner, resulting in poor reception on some or all channels.
Please contact your local TV antenna installer.
Picture very infrequently breaks up on some or all channels
• Electrical atmospheric interference caused by local or distant lighting storms or heavy
rain with wind in ‘leafy’ locations may cause pictures to break up and audio to mute or
distort momentarily.
• Impulse noise interference from an infrequently used electrical appliance, or a passing
vehicle or lawn mower with a ‘noisy’ ignition system.
