CONNECTING THE MEDIAMASTER

Note the following:

•In some block of flats, the roof-mounted aerial system includes a filter and chan- nel selector. If so, the aerial will probably not work with the Mediamaster, in which case you should contact your landlord.

•Many older roof-mounted aerials may only receive a limited number of channels. As a result, digital channels transmitted on higher frequencies are difficult or even impossible to receive. The problem can be solved by replacing the roof aerial.

•Some outdoor aerials are directed towards an analogue transmitter. The aerial must be directed towards a digital TV transmitter.

•It is not always advisable to position the aerial as high as possible. If problems arise, experiment with different aerial heights.

2. Indoor and window-mounted aerials

This type of aerial may be enough if the reception conditions are very good. If an indoor aerial is used, note the following:

•Use an aerial for UHF channels 21-69, e.g., a directional aerial.

•Place the aerial by the window and direct it towards the TV transmitter, if possi- ble.

•An aerial that has an amplifier is recommended as it may provide a stronger sig- nal.

•The strength of the TV signal varies according to reflections from buildings, etc. The signal penetrates thick stone or concrete walls poorly. However, a wooden building is not a big barrier for digital TV signals.

General

There are many different types of TVs, VCRs and other equipment that you can connect to the Mediamaster.
