[QUOTE="mesaka, post: 27828, member: 176060"] Hi Having managed to source a second digibox on E-bay I thought I would change my LNB to a dual output this weekend. While doing the upgrade I knocked my dish so had to reinstall it - not a tricky job as I have one of those cheap sat finders. I then went and checked both of the feeds on the two TV's and they were fine. However, I then took out the sat finder and instantly the quality reading for the new digibox dropped below a level acceptable for BBC reception. I put the sat meter back in the loop and it works again. I do not really understand what in the meter is likely to be improving the quality enough. Can anyone give me an explanation and preferably explain what I can do to ensure the quality reading without having to permanently leave my sat finder in the loop? My set-up is a basic cheap LNB (I have an invacom TWH-031 onm order - this is just one a friend had lying around) an 88 cm dish and the digibox which has this problem is a grundig GDS 310 (there is also a TiVo and philips videosender in the chain!) Thanks in advance to anyone who can advise! [/QUOTE]
