CHAPTER THREE

Operation

Checking the Digital-Signal Reception

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. But you can adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.

the antenna until you find the

 

 

 

best position with the strongest signal.

 

 

4 When you have finished adjusting your antenna, press EXIT.

NOTE

“No Signal” may appear on the screen depending on the broadcast station conditions, even if an incoming broadcast signal exists.
