operation
cOnnecTiOn: According to the above plan. The green leD („pow-
er“) glows when the satellite finder is supplied with the receiver. now
carefully plug the thin end of the enclosed setting screw through the
opening on top of the satellite finder and then into to the controller till
it latches tight. Then turn the mounted setting screw to the left side stop
(for better insulation the setting screw is made of plastic and might thus
break when treated too roughly).
Your satellite finder is now being ready for use.
preSetting the unit
The satellite antenna has to be oriented to the ground and the setting
screw turned to the right side until the first red leDs start glowing (SF
70: the accoustic signal is to be heard). This way your satellite finder
has got its optimum sensitivity.
coarSe aDjuStment oF the antenna
Orientation depends on the geographic location of your place of
residence. in case you live in central europe, this means that - with
excellent reception being desired - the antenna must be mounted at a
place where you can see the sun uncovered at midday. if the antenna
has a vertical angular adjustment, adjust it to about 27° to 36°; with
no angular adjustment, hold it almost vertical, but slightly upwards.
now just turn the antenna to the south and from that position slightly to
the east (i.e. to the left). For coarse adjustment it could also be helpful to
