Why does my Strong Receiver say no signal?

  Jordan BarrettAug 6, 2025
  If you're getting a 'No signal found' message on your Strong Receiver, the first thing to check is the aerial lead to make sure it's properly connected. Also, the aerial might be damaged or misaligned, so inspect that as well. If you are using an active antenna, make sure the receiver’s Antenna Power is switched ON or connect an external feed. If everything appears to be in order, you may be out of the digital signal area; in that case, check with your dealer.

  If your Strong Receiver isn't responding to the remote control, there might be several reasons. First, ensure the receiver is plugged in and turned on. Then, make sure you're aiming the remote directly at the front panel of the receiver without any obstructions. Finally, the remote batteries might be dead, so try replacing them.

  If you move your Strong Receiver to another room and can no longer receive digital reception, it could be due to weak antenna signals. Press the INFO button 3 times on the remote to check the signal bars and adjust the antenna for maximum reception, or rescan the channels.
