[QUOTE="Asoet, post: 1010485, member: 410453"] Hi All, I am new here and need some advice from all of user who might have an experience with my mine. I build a Satellite TV reception with 4.2 m C-Band dishes (aligned to Palapa D and Telkom 1 satellite ) with 135 m cable length from dish to IRD (Decoder), currently I am using Belden 9292 RG-11 cable and now I am facing unstable reception. Sometimes the IRD can't lock the signal for only several second and get back to normal, this is happen 4 - 6 times a day with random time. I am realize with the cable loss since the long cable used, therefore I put L-Band Amplifier in the middle distance between the dish and the IRD. What I don't understand is my signal reception has a good enough quality and also i already measure the signal quality with below details for certain TV Channel : a. Reception level input : - 43 dBm b. Link Margin estimated : 6 dBm c. C/N level : 10 - 12 dB Some channels even has better quality than that but still sometimes the IRD shown demodulator unlock. Maybe some user here has a same experience as mine and fix the issue please share. FYI : Using fiber optic converter is the last option due to budget limitation. Thanks, [/QUOTE]
