Electrical
Appliances,
etc.
Which causes a speckled, streaked picture. This is most
noticeable in weak signal areas.
Snow in Picture Caused by insufficient signal. Usually
caused by the "IV being located too far from the TV station
or by an improper antenna installation.
Ghosts or Reflections Caused by signals being reflected
from surrounding buildings, water tanks, or other high struc-
tures.

may
cause interference.
These interference problems can often be corrected
through the use of a better antenna, signal amplifiers, or
various t'dter devices. See your "IV dealer for additional in-
