RECEPTION PROBLEMS
| 
 | • IGNITION NOISE: | 
 | 
| 
 | Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift. Usually | 
 | 
| 
 | caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electrical drills, | English | 
| 
 | and other electrical appliances. | |
| 
 | 
 | |
| 
 | • GHOSTS: | |
| 
 | Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the direct path | 
 | 
| 
 | and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other objects. Changing the | 
 | 
| 
 | direction or position of the antenna may improve reception. Ghosting may also be | 
 | 
| 
 | caused by defects in the antenna system such as unshielded leads or connecting | 
 | 
| 
 | several sets to the same antenna without using multiple antenna couplers. | 
 | 
| 
 | • SNOW: | 
 | 
| 
 | If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is | 
 | 
| 
 | weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small dots. When the signal | 
 | 
| 
 | is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a special antenna to improve the | 
 | 
| 
 | picture. | 
 | 
| 
 | 
 | 
 | 
| 
 | • RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE: | 
 | 
| 
 | The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in some cases, | 
 | 
| 
 | causes loss of contrast in the picture. | 
 | 
| 
 | • PREVENTION OF AN OBSTACLE TO RADIO RECEIVERS |
