Attach a UHF Attenuator

Stray UHF signals can block signals from the remote control to the receiver.

To prevent blocks, you can install a 10 dB attenuator (you can buy one from

a consumer electronics parts store).

Note

: This will help keep out stray UHF signals, but also cut down how far

away you can use the remote control.

1. Take the UHF antenna off of the

receiver’s back panel UHF Remote
Antenna input.

2. Put a 10 dB attenuator onto the UHF

Remote Antenna input.
