          Reception of TV and Radio signals broadcast by the 4 groups of
        
        
          satellites is guaranteed within the darker (footprint) areas. It should be
        
        
          remembered that signals become weaker when the sky is overcast or
        
        
          rainy, and this could lead to images with macroblocks, or the images
        
        
          could even disappear. When choosing the satellite system to be installed
        
        
          on your vehicle, make sure the dimensions of the parabola are suited
        
        
          for receiving the satellite signals in
        
        
          your viewing area.
