Exactly and another thing is the fact the receiver can't show more than 99 % even if real value is much higher.
So absolutely best is if the values are shown in dB.
Even if values in percentage don't say that much here are the values at my place (1,1 m antenna):
12616 H: 90-92 %
12635 V: 96-98 %
12654 H: 90-92 %
12673 V: 92-94 %
12713 V: 93-95 %
Most other transponders on Hotbird show 99 % (a couple show 95-97 %).
The Vivacom transponders showing so high...
12616 H, 12635 V, 12673 V and 12713 V back on.
12654 H not active!
Very strong signal!
EDIT: 12654 H also active now!
All channels with EPG now!
The channels which were on 12654 H are on other frequencies now.
As an example City TV was on 12654 H but is on 12635 V now and so on.
Here is 11053 H by far the most problematic.
With the SF8008 (not the Supreme version) I can get a couple of hours in the morning and the evening.
Same thing with the VU+ DUO2.
With the VU+ DUO 4K SE I can get it almost 24/7 if the weather isn't to bad.
I bought a SF8008 but since it doesn't have a CI-slot I bought a VU+ Duo 4K SE too.
I must say I'm more satisfied with the VU+.
However the price of the VU+ is almost twice as high.
DVB-S2 8PSK = more efficient technology. Allows higher bitrate than QPSK.
It's said Sky will change some remaining DVB-S channels to DVB-S2 on 28 E in the near future.
Don't know if they'll use 8PSK or QPSK.Today the use both!
11386 H/V, 11426 V on Astra 2E use DVB-S2 QPSK but most DVB-S2 use...
Which value you need depends on which technique is used and the FEC.
DVB-S2 8PSK needs a stronger signal than DVB-S and DVB-S2 QPSK.
FEC 2/3 needs less than 5/6 or 7/8.
This is shown in the table above.
The Bulgarian channels are transmitted using DVB-S2 8PSK and FEC 5/6 which is much harder to...
The signal seems stable now (same level yesterday and today).
12616 H: 15,1 dB
12635 V: 15,3 dB
12654 H: 15,1 dB
12673 V: 14,6 dB
12713 V: 14,9 dB
This with an 1,1 Triax Antenna.
