Description
Description
You can receive uncoded (free-to-air) digital satellite channels with the satellite system without depending on a fix mounted satellite antenna. The mobile antenna allows you to receive signals at different places, like e.g. on a camping site. With the mounting parts, the antenna can be installed e.g. on a balustrade, a mast or a wall. Naturally, you can also connect the receiver to a fix installed satellite antenna.
It is not necessary to set the receiver yet. The most important broadcasting stations and satellites have already been preset.
The following satellites have been preset by the factory:
•Astra 19.2E
•Hotbird 13.0E
•Türksat 42.0E
