Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help

Ensure a minimum of 1-meter separation between co-located ProST's.
When using an external antenna, the external antenna must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
