Connecting the Mediamaster
About digital transmission
Digital Radio and TV signals can be blocked by buildings, mountains
and the terrain. Depending on if the receiver is located in a valley,
behind a mountain or in a concrete building, the quality of
reception may vary considerably.
As with most other transmissions, bad weather affects reception
quality.
Connecting to the TV aeriall
You can connect the Mediamaster to the following type of aerials:
1. Standard outdoor aerial
Where possible, use an outdoor roof aerial intended for receiving
UHF/VHF channels (21-69).
Please note the following:
• In some blocks of flats, the roof-mounted aerial system includes
a filter and channel selector. If so, the aerial may not work with
the Mediamaster. Please consult your landlord.
• Many older roof-mounted aerials may only receive a limited
number of channels, which results in it being difficult or even
impossible to receive digital channels transmitted on higher
frequencies. This 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. When an indoor aerial is used, please note the following:
• Use an aerial for UHF/VHF channels (21-69), e.g., a directional
aerial.
• Place the aerial by the window and direct it towards the TV
transmitter, if possible.
• It is recommended that you use a Nokia aerial and an amplifier
to provide a stronger signal.
• The strength of the TV signal varies according to reflections from
e.g., buildings. The signal penetrates thick stone or concrete
walls poorly. A wooden building, however, is not an
insurmountable barrier for digital TV signals.
