[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1206616, member: 82144"] Certainly - the two 6982 tuners will give the same readings, as would any other 6982 tuner. However different tuner products will give different readings. You can probably see this if you compare 6982 readings with readings from the Hauppauge WinTV dualHD. Different input signal - yes. However, also different scales, precision etc. Just to be clear - I'm talking about the cables that run from the LNB on the satellite dish to your 6982 tuners. All connections from the dish to the tuner - including splitters and switches - must be good. Yes, true. Much of what we're ruling in and out depends on the point that the problem only affects the BBC HD channels. It's important that you're certain of that fact. Any doubt opens the door for some of the other possible causes. No, you've misunderstood. There's nothing specific to Freeview or Freesat. The result - pixelation, complete stop etc. - depends on how badly the signal is affected and which parts of the stream are corrupted/missing. The picture coming and going with Freeview suggests a less severe signal problem than the complete stop on the Freesat BBC HD channels. I agree this is odd. A weather-related issue is more usually observed as a gradual degradation (eg. a drop of 5 or 10 in strength and/or quality) with some pixelation rather than a drop to 0 (and presumably a loss of signal lock) in the space of 5 seconds as you've reported. If that were the case you'd have to take it up with TBS. All I could say is that I've not seen any reports of a compatibility issue like that. As far as I'm aware, both TBS tuners and the BBC transmission are fully DVB-S/S2 compliant. Therefore I wouldn't expect a compatibility problem. At first read it seems similar. However according to the second post, that problem only affected BBC 2 HD [I]and not BBC 1 HD[/I]. That's a significant distinguishing difference. A signal problem like yours appears to be will affect [I]all [/I]channels on the corresponding transponder: [URL]http://en.kingofsat.net/tp.php?tp=508[/URL] [/QUOTE]
