Hi
I've recently installed a TD110 on a ground mount at the bottom of the garden but I am having disappointing results compared to my roof mounted TD88. Its on a Technomate motor with WF100 cable to a PC running DVB-Dream, and my TD88 also uses the same motor and TBS satellite card but with a slightly shorter length RG6 cable.
The difference in signal between the two seems very marginal and this is bearing in mind that the TD88 hasn't been fine tuned or adjusted for a few years and has probably moved slightly in the wind, with proper adjustment I could probably get the same signal level on both.
Has anyone got any experience of these two dishes and comparing them? Am I expecting too much?
Some examples:
16E : 10886H 13.6db on TD88, 14.7db on TD110
16E: 12516H 9db on TD88, 9.5db on TD110
db figures are from Crazyscan using the same TBS dual tuner card.
Thanks in advance for any advice
