1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a KING antenna!
And welcome to the exciting world of mobile satellite television. Please read all of the information on
this page before using your KING Quest.
This KING Quest can be used with one of two options, the power injector or the UC1000 Controller.
POWER INJECTOR
The power injector allows the antenna to lock on the DIRECTV 101 satellite to receive SD
programming from DIRECTV.
If installing this option, go to Section 14, Installation.
If the antenna unit and power injector are already
installed and you are ready to connect your TV
and receiver, go to page 3.
UC1000 CONTROLLER
The controller allows the antenna to receive DISH HD and SD programming (satellites 110, 119, 129)
and switch between them if necessary as dictated by programming chosen on the main receiver. It
also allows use of the antenna with other DISH services, as well as DIRECTV and Bell TV services,
and includes a security alarm feature.
If installing this option, go to Section 14, Installation.
It the antenna unit and controller are already
installed and you are ready to connect your TV
and receiver, go to page 4.
IMPORTANT!
The antenna unit requires a “direct
line of sight” to the satellites in the
southern sky for signal reception.
Any tall objects can block the signal
from reaching the antenna.
DIRECTV, DISH and Bell TV services all require paid programming subscriptions.

PLEASE BE PATIENT!
The antenna unit may lock on the satellite in as little as 2 minutes,
but may occasionally take up to 10-15 minutes.
To start a new scan, press the RESET button on the power injector.
When all connections are made, the antenna unit will scan for the DIRECTV 101 satellite.
When the satellite is found, your programming will appear. Enjoy!
The KING Quest will not lock on the 119
satellite, so you will not receive your local
channels if they are broadcast from the
119. If you wish to receive programming
from the 119 as well as the 101, you
can replace the power injector with the
KING UC1000 Controller (sold separately
- see your dealer or our website www.
kingconnect.com for details.) For second receiver use, see page 13.
