But it is now even better!

Eastern DK: avg 10.0 dB C/N
Sweden: avg 11.3 dB C/N

The swedish location is about 100 km further east then the DK one, but it is still a remarkable increase in C/N ratio.

Just comparing with fresh readings from my Copenhagen-based dishes:

CM120: 10.0 C/N 75 dBμV strength
CM180: 11.9 db C/N 83.7 dBμV strength

SO...
1) the reception is better 100 km further east - a bit more more power, a bit better C/N ratio.
2) CM180 gives a lot more power than th CM120 (more than expected - 46 dB gain vs 42 dB gain), but just marginally better C/N. In other words, signal is still challenged, but the CM180 gives better rain margin (expect for total black-out, which i had for 15 minutes the other day during passage of a front).
