SATMAR60 User Manual Objects such as a tall lighthouse, bridges and big ships that block this view will cause a loss of signal. The signal will be quickly restored once the antenna has a clear line of sight again. Heavy rain, cloud, snow or ice may also interfere with the signal reception quality. - Page 9 SATMAR60 User Manual This section offers a general explanation of how properly to install the SATMAR60 antenna. Installation of the SATMAR60 antenna must be accomplished by or under the supervision of an authorized dealer for the Limited Warranty to be valid and in force.

Page 22: Simple Check
SATMAR60 User Manual Simple check Simple check Simple check Simple check Can the antenna see the satellite? The antenna requires an unobstructed view of the sky to receive satellite TV signals. Common causes of blockage include trees, buildings, bridges, and mountains. -
Page 23: Causes And Remedies
See “Appendix-A & B Satellite Coverage Maps” Satellite Signal Blocked The SATMAR60 Antenna needs a clear line of sight (LOS), view to the satellite for uninterrupted reception. Objects such as tall lighthouse, bridges and big ship that block this view will cause a loss of signal. The signal will be quickly restored once the antenna has a clear line of sight again. -
Page 24: Satellite Coverage Map - New Zealand
The further you travel offshore you will require a larger size antenna. Although this information is believed to be correct, MAJESTIC has no control over the variations on the actual satellite footprint coverage. Signal strength and reception can be affected by the weather conditions. -
