[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1068339, member: 82144"] Hi DragonQ Not recommended. ;) TV Server does not update the readings fast enough to properly optimise the position of a dish. There will be a delay between when the reading is taken and when the reading is displayed... which is not ideal. Also, it won't show bursts of noise (eg. rat chewing cable, interference burst as plane flies over etc.). You should care more about the signal quality reading than the signal strength reading. Also, there is such a thing as signal that is too strong. Yes. Simply: get a professional in. Somebody with appropriate tools and experience will be able to do a far better job. No offence intended. It is as much about the limitations of MediaPortal's display as anything else. Possibly better... but it depends on how often the box updates the readings, and whether it offers more than % (ie. proper BER and SNR). These are more likely to be due to transient interference conditions than overall dish/LNB alignment. You need better tools to solve such problems. mm [/QUOTE]
