Technical advice
1. Check there is no earth braid touching the centre
conductor on the coaxial cable.
2. Is there more than one outlet? Check the
splitter box, the power supply must be connected
to the coaxial outlet that feeds the AC/DC leg of
the splitter box to pass power to the head unit.
(Check if LED is on).
3. Is there now too much signal causing an
overload effect to the VCR? Try turning down
the gain controls on the masthead unit, or select a
smaller dB rating amplifier.
4. If there is a white line moving through the
picture? Try a PSK06 14 V DC power supply.
