What are the signal levels like in a practical sense?

Getting 56% signal quality on the Octagon SX88+ sorry I can't give an accurate DB reading. Signal is a bit rubbish but achievable in the UK with a 1m or + dish.

I shall have a go for this one this afternoon. First of all find SES4 22W again :D
 
12160 H 30000 2/3 signal borderline here with the 100cm Gibertini I may have to do some dish fine tuning later.

Yes, quite strong signal (I centered my dish on 24.5W since I haven't yet added the satellite in my xml), even under moderate rain!

Both frequencies around 12db at the moment, should be higher on bright weather!
 
Good reception here now with the 88cm dish on both transponders.DSCN2476[1].webp
