[QUOTE="farmobile, post: 1123791, member: 417302"] Just got the chance to try. Curious findings, at least for me. [I]Signal Strength Meter[/I] Unfort unavailable on the television if there are no channels at all. [I]Do the multiswitch & FibreIRS have any LEDs indicating power or signal and are they lit up?[/I] They do indeed. The Multiswitch got a red LED apparently indicating power and the FibreIRS got two LEDs: one "RF" (assume to show if there is sufficient signal) and one "DC" for power. The Multiswitch power LED and the FibreIRS DC LED flash simultaneously when power is supplied (I read the FibreIRS is powered via a Multiswitch). Now the interesting part: Normal setting - the RF LED is not flashing. However, just removing the FibreIRS V. Lo cable that goes to the multiswitch and replacing that by the Sat cable from the TV -> the RF LED is flashing after a minute. At that time, the TV finds channels again and everything seems to work fine. Singal strength 58%, Singal quality 93%. I still don't really get it to be honest :) [/QUOTE]
