antennas [K] on the Transmitter and Receiver unit facing each other (i.e. in Line
of Sight. Sometimes however reflections and other effects in the home may affect
the signal so that some adjustment of either Transmitter or Receiver antenna may
be necessary to get the best signal.

Check that the units are connected to mains and that the Power-switch is in the
ON position. Check that the Channel slide switch (labelled A-D) on both
GigaVideo units is set at the same number.
If you are using coaxial TV connections from the GigaVideo Receiver, check that
the TV is tuned at channel 36.
If the signal is poor, or there is interference:
Try changing the channel on both GigaVideo units. Do this by adjusting the
Channel slide swich on the side of each GigaVideo unit to any position from
A-D Make sure both units are set to the same channel.
