[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 10115, member: 174998"] There are many elements in a satellite reception system that improve performance. Here are a few: - lower-noise LNB (normally they are around 0.7 to 0.9db but can be as low as 0.4db) - shorter co-ax (get rid of coiled extra, or move the dish closer to your receiver). Co-ax attenuates the signal as it propogates it. - better dish & LNB alignment (have you checked that it is perfect?) - better quality cable (sat-specification is not the same as V co-ax) - get rid of any sharp bends in the cable (each cable has a maximum curvature tolerance) - replace cable if you suspect moisture has seeped into the end. - for analogue reception, use threshold-extension on your receiver 2old [/QUOTE]
