[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 4671, member: 174998"] Signal strength is not the crucial factor. Signal quality is. What is your signal quality on the tranponders you are trying to receive? For a watchable picture on the ad3000ip a minimum of 30-35% quality is needed. Even if the quality is fairly high the signal may be difficult to lock if you have not got the symbol-rate accurately specified. EG if it is 22000 and you have 21800 in the settings. A poor LNB may also be problematic - or a grossly misaligned polarizor (or an LNB which is rotated) - anything which makes the signal difficult to lock. You don't say from which satellite & provider you are trying to receive CNN & Sky-News. Some are encrypted. But there are FTA versions on the Astra1 & Astra2 clusters - no decoder required. 2old [/QUOTE]
