Features

Graphic Equalizer & Digital Audio Signal Processing (DSP)

The Monterey 140 features a fully-functional graphic equalizer displayed both on the front panel and within the menu structure. Also featured are adjustments for room size, room type, and reverberation. Combined, these provide users with digital audio capabilities usually reserved for high fidelity components.
  • 1500 Favorite Channels

  • The Monterey 140 can be programmed with over 1,500 favorite channels. Favorite channels can be grouped into any variety of categories including Movies, Sport, News, Music, Educational, and Family Favorites.
  • ITC

  • For satellite systems on the edge of the broadcasting footprint, Chaparral's Infinite Threshold Control (ITC) provides extended signal enhancement for optimizing weak and distorted signals. In addition to 16 preset positions, the threshold control feature allowed the user to individually change four parameters affecting video and audio quality.
    Memory Card
    Designed to facilitate the process of updating the receiver's internal database, the Memory Card eliminates the need for replacing database EPROM's. It also allows the user to backup the receiver's database once it has been programmed with favorite channel information and other personalized data. Initial installation is made fast and simple by downloading the programming information from the Memory Card into the Monterey 140's internal database.
  • Insta-Track

  • Chaparral's patented Insta-Track feature makes installing the Monterey 140 a simple process. Once you have set the East and West limits and located three reference satellites, Insta-Track automatically calculates the location of the remaining satellites and their corresponding channels. All satellite and channel information is then stored in the receiver's database.
  • Scan Tune

  • Chaparral's patented Scan Tune feature quickly locates active satellites and channels. For satellites with frequently changing transponders, Channel Scan provides a simple method for locating and storing new or sporadic channels. Satellite Scan will quickly locate newly launched or relocated satellites.
  • Date Link

  • Allows users to program their receiver using a computer and keyboard.
