The satellite signal may be lost temporarily due to unusually heavy rainfall. An optimally aligned
antenna, along with the shortest possible cable run, minimizes the chances of “rain fade.”
Make sure the antenna is mounted securely to prevent it from being blown out of alignment in a
heavy wind.
Heavy snow accumulation on the antenna may reduce the satellite signal strength, snow should be
swept away as sppn as possible.
Tree foliage growth into antenna’s line-of-sight to the satellite may result in gradual loss of picture.

For installations where the RG 6 cable runs from the receuver(s) to the LNB far exceeds 100 feet (150
feet or more), as encountered in a commercial or multi-dwelling building, you need to use an AC
power booster module to bias the LNB.
You will also need an additional RF signal amplier to compensate the signal amplitude loss.
Otherwise, your antenna and receiver may not work properly and be subject to frequent outages in
adverse weather. Contact a professional concerning such installations.
