No trees or buildings.. Why does it only affect my itv1 though? Boy I'm confused but I am going to attempt to re-align the dish tomorrow.. My bruv has 60% signal strength and 80% signal quality and he lives in a built up area...man these things are meant to try us eh..

I've never changed the cable so I guess it's the original one that has been there since it was installed.

I'll have to get back out there tomorrow and try and re-align it again and see if it helps.. Lastly, would changing the cable to a new one make a difference?

Never touched the LNB apart from unscrewing the cable... I just looked out at it and the cable appears to be more at 6 o'clock rather than 7.. How do I go about skewing the LNB so the cable is 7 o'clock... And secondly why should it be skewed?

Yes I'm using a dish and not a rooftop ariel but as to wot make the dish is I'm unaware off.. I can check Sunday daytime and try and find a brand name on it somewhere but it looks very similar to many of the other dishes down my street if that helps.

Hi and thankyou for your time & effort for a complete newbie.. It seems to be specific to ITV1 mainly..I use a 'freeview card' from sky just for the record.

Hi...I have a problem with the signal strength on my Panasonic sky digibox. The signal strength is at 100% but the signal quality is only on 50%. I have used a meter to align the dish to the best angle and the signal quality did bump up from around 40% to what it is now:50%.. system details are...
