[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 987415, member: 176704"] Moral/solution: accurate alignment, including correct setting of the LNB skew, and good quality cable (nowadays I will not use anything other than copper cored, screened and shielded, foam filled WF100 or similar, but some of the old air-cored & RG6 cable parts of the system still seem to work OK), but even then, with today's 28E signal levels, almost any crap cable and installation should work. My main suspect for poor signal would therefore be poor installation, or water ingress into the cable. PS: are all the F-plugs correctly and securely fitted? Can make the difference between a good signal and none at all. [/QUOTE]
