[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 842251, member: 301161"] I don't know any receivers that will do that properly. Uno does lock on things that have too many errors to play, but like you are finding the cliff edge is pretty sharp. My SatCatcher meter (Excel-TV MkIV, I think) will sync down to about 3dB. From what I've read a TBS card will do the same, or at least draw the constellation. My old Lacuna was the same, locking a signal well out of the range of any of my other meters. TBH, if you really want to see what is coming down the cable, get an old Emitor Satlook and connect it into the downcable using a splitter and DC blocker. That way the receiver controls the LNB, and you can see what is on the cable using the meter's real-time-spectrum. [/QUOTE]
