Troubleshooting guide
ISSUE| ACTION (After re-positioning or adjusting your antenna you should re-
tune your TV)
No picture or sound, or picture is pixelated.| • Ensure you have
selected an antenna appropriate for your location. Visit
www.crest.com.au/myantenna for
assistance.
• Try moving the antenna to another place in the room. Placing near a window often works well especially if you can point towards the TV transmission tower.
• Make sure the antenna is away from any electrical appliances.
• Adjust the orientation. Try laying the antenna flat as well as standing upright.
• If you live more than 10kms from a transmission tower make sure the antenna is plugged in and mains power is on.
• If you live within 0-10kms away from a transmission tower you may need to turn power off completely
to reduce the likelihood of signal overload. The antenna may still receive signal even if the mains power is switched off when it is close to the TV transmission source.
I can only receive a few channels.| • Please refer to steps above.
Experimentation is often required to find an optimal location and orientation.
With indoor antennas, you may find that an antenna may not receive all
available channels at one location or orientation.
I’ve tried all the steps above, but have not solved my problem.| • The
reception performance of an indoor antenna can vary based on factors such as
the materials with which your home is constructed and obstructions outside of
your home such as hills, valleys and other buildings.
It may be that an outdoor antenna is required for your particular circumstances.
• When all TV was broadcast as an analogue signal, a weak signal could still give you a watchable result even if it was a bit grainy. The way in which a digital signal works is different. Instead of the picture becoming less clear as the signal strength reduces, a digital signal
will simply stop showing any picture at all. With digital signals, picture quality is all-or-nothing.
