SECTION 5
SATELLITE ANTENNA OPERATION
IMPORTANT: There must be a clear “line of sight” to the southern sky. Mountains, buildings, trees, telephone
poles, etc. can all block the satellite signal from reaching the dish.
The distance driven since last performing a search may affect how long it takes for the
King-Dome
AIR to find the satellite.
The King-Dome AIR can receive available HDTV programming from DIRECTV Ku band satellites at
101° and 119°. It will not receive channels broadcast from DIRECTV’s Ka band satellites at 99°
and 103°.
TV and receiver technology are constantly changing. If you experience difficulty go to
www.kingcontrols.com or contact the King Controls Service Department at
(800) 982-9920, ext. 373.
