[QUOTE="trev1978, post: 898971, member: 369429"] Hi all, My Danish contact says he can get me upgraded to an HD box. My question is do HD channels require a higher signal levels to clear than SD channels. As i said before my signal is a bit marginal. I can get all the SD channels but at certain times of the year the signal level tails off at night. Generally all the SD TP's are pulling a quality level of 70% plus (as measured on my technomate). However i found with the official PACE receiver the picture started to pixilate when the quality level dropped to 60% where as the technomate would work down to 50%. If i did get a new receiver is it possible to get the tuner in the box upgraded to a more sensitive one? I remember reading that ex-pats in Spain look for particular makes of SKY boxes that were better at dealing with marginal signals (I think it was the Amstrad boxes that were best in this instance).
