Advice Needed Drop in signal on 0.8w Nordic beam

[dankargo]

Hi all,

I have been receiving the Norwegian & Swedish channels from 0.8w for about a year now, since my motorised dish went up. It's only an 80cm but living in Essex has meant that I have been able to pick up the Nordic beam (or I assume it is).

What I have noticed is that over the past few months I've experienced a drop in signal on some of the channels on these transponders despite no noticeable change in setup. I've checked the other satellites and signal levels are as they should be. My question is, for whatever reason, is it possible that the signal drop is something to do with the time of year ?

Yes, signals do vary throughout the year, especially in the fringes. That said, I haven't noticed any differences in signal levels on 1W.

Thanks for the fast response.

The SD channels from SVT & NRK for example are fine and haven't changed in level but SVT 1 HD & NRK 1 HD have gone from about 70% to 60-65% for me in recent months.
