Set the television so that it receives the signal from an ANTENNA instead of CABLE or SATELLITE. Installation Determine the signal strength Before Installation, determine the best location for optimum reception. It is important for the antenna to have an unobstructed path to the transmitter. For best results, ensure the antenna faces the location of the transmitter. Note · Choose a location near a window which gives the antenna a clear view of the transmitter. Note · Ensure the antenna element is properly mounted into the base and positioned on a horizontal surface. Note · Place the antenna away from the metal surface to avoid interference.

[. . . ] However, many different image sizes are also supported, so that up to six standard-definition "virtual channels" can be broadcast on a single 6 MHz TV channel. (DTV) signals are used, requiring less bandwidth due to digital video compression. U UHF (Ultra high frequency) In radio or TV broadcasting: it is the frequency range of electromagnetic waves which lies between 300 MHz and 3 GHz (3000 MHz). V VHF (Very high frequency) In radio or TV broadcasting: it is the frequency range of electromagnetic waves which lies between 30 MHz and 300 MHz. C Coaxial A single copper conductor, surrounded with a layer of insulation, covered by a surrounding copper shield and finally, an insulating jacket. An unbalanced transmission line with constant impedance. In audio, this type is commonly used for low level, line signals terminated in RCA connectors. H HDTV (High-Definition Television) It is a digital television broadcasting system with higher resolution than traditional television systems (standard-definition TV, or SDTV). [. . . ]
