[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 164974, member: 193607"] Signal quality of zero or around 10-20% is quite normal in fringe areas, and is only for the default transponder of 11778 which now carries no TV. Early afternoon it is very weak here in central Iberia, weaker than the Astra 2D beam. If you go into the installer's menu and try a manual tune you will get the signal quality on a channel being used for programming, such as a 2D frequency of 10773 or 10803 horizontal (22000, 5/6). If the quality drops below 20% on a Pace 2600 or 430n, the result is blocky pixillation. 25%+ will give reliable picture result. Other boxes such as Panasonic give unfeasibly high readings and readouts should be ignored. They still give excellent picture quality on a RGB scart signal if you can put up with the software problems. [/QUOTE]
