[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 904437, member: 323322"] Well done on finding the Satellite and don't worry about the readings: Metering on Receivers is very crude indeed and when you have a strong signal, something called Automatic Gain Control kicks in. This helps to stop overloading the Tuner but can also have the effect of seeming to limit or even reduce the Signal Strength and Quality Readings. The latter are merely indications and are of limited use. What really matters is if the Channels are fully locked and remain so during inclement weather. One final point, don't forget to rotate the LNB in the holder to achieve the optimum "skew" >> Looking from the LNB towards the dish, it should probably be rotated clockwise a few degrees. This will ensure you get best results on both Horizontally and Polarised Channels. [/QUOTE]
