Adjusting the gain level
If you are still experiencing reception
problems after installing the AM6160G5,
please refer to the troubleshooting guide
below:
No picture or sound
No signal is reaching your television due
to a possible break in the aerial signal
path. Ensure that all equipment has been
switched on (including the AM6160G5
amplifier) and that all coaxial connectors
have been fi tted correctly.
Snowy picture
Your signal strength is still too weak.
Ensure that your aerial is positioned
correctly (pointing at your local TV
transmitter).
For details of your local television
transmitters,

reception.
Ageing
corroded by the weather, which may
need to be replaced. Also check that the
position of the aerial has not been mis-
aligned by weather, birds, or loft activity.
'Herringbone' pattern
'Herringboning' is generally caused by
too strong signal or possibly by local
high power transmitters such as CB,
amateur or taxi radios. Your TV sound
may be affected as well as the picture.
Use a signal attenuator (available from
your local electrical retailer) to reduce
the gain of your aerial signal and improve
your picture. If you are located very close
to your local television transmitter, point
your aerial at an alternative transmitter
in order to receive a more suitable level
signal.

Problems with DTT
Unlike analogue terrestrial television, it is
not possible to view DTT channel under
weak signal strength conditions.
Therefore, typically you will either
receive DTT channels with a clear picture
and sound or you will not receive any
channels at all.
Sometimes, an insufficient digital signal
can cause occasional blocking, freezing
or complete loss of picture. Some roof
aerials may not be suitable for digital
terrestrial television.
Ensure that you have fitted a suitable
wideband, high gain aerial to help
improve signal quality to a suitable level
for clear DTT reception.
Blocking, freezing or complete loss of
picture can also occur when a digital
signal is too strong.
If your signal is too strong then connect
your DTT receiver directly to the UHF
aerial downlead, then connect the
AM6160G5 amplifier to your DTT receiver
output followed by your remaining
equipment. If the signal is still too strong,
fit a signal attenuator between the
aerial downlead and DTT receiver to help
reduce the signal strength.
Problems with satellite television
If you are experiencing any problems with
your satellite television picture, check
that all cables and connectors have been
fi tted correctly. If the problem persists it
is probably due to the dish alignment or
a temporary problem with the channel
transmissions. Please contact your local
satellite dealer if the problem persists.
