Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify and realize the directivity adjustment by connecting a display device to an automatic gain control terminal of a tuner so as to display an automatic gain control voltage of a tuner. CONSTITUTION:The display device 11 for AGC level display is arranged at the rear part of a reflecting mirror 10 and the device 11 is connected to an AGC terminal 13a of the tuner 13 of the television receiver 12 via a cable 14. In case of adjusting the direction of directivity, the cable 14 is used to connect the display device 11 and a primary radiator 15 to the AGC terminal 13a of the tuner 13 and a feeder terminal 13b for tentative installation at first. Then the operator turns on a changeover switch of the display device 11 and observes the display part and adjusts the direction of directivity to a maximum value to complete the setting of the directivity.
