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, |
| 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 |
| This monitor has been designed pursuant to the FCC class B Rules. This is to prevent |
