My System: Humax F1 VACI, 80cm dish Inverto 0.2db lnb
Signal Level & Quality too low

Hi guys,

I hope someone can help me. I used to be able to receive at least 60% signal level and 30%/40% signal quality, and it never gave a "no signal" message unless during a storm. (Hotbird 13E)

Now I only get 35% signal level and 20% signal quality and the image constantly breaks up even during a sunny day with no clouds.

At first I thought it might have to do with the LNB. I had an old 0.7 db LNB, so I bought a new Inverto 0.2 db LNB, but nothing changed. The I tried a new coax cable (a piece of cable I had laying around somewhere), still nothing has changed.

Now I think it might have something to do with all the threes in front of our apartment, but we always had those threes there and it never caused any difficulties back then.

Anyway, I made some pictures. I hope someone can help me out...

1st picture: This is my dish, 80cm + Inverto 0.2db LNB, at a height of about 2.5meters

2nd picture: Holding my camera directly above the LNB holding it horizontally.

3rd picture: Holding my camera directly above the LNB holding it in the direction of where the dish is pointing.
