[QUOTE="mcraenz, post: 187479, member: 54136"] Hi Guys, I'm no pro, and looking out the window at the weather I'm hoping my dish will still be mounted when I get home! but here are my suggestions: 1.Have you played with the skew of the LNB i.e. Once you get the dish aligned, (which it sound like you've got just fine) try loosening the LNB in its holder and turning it left to right to see if the signal Q gets any better. There is a transponder on 12456 vertical [B]and[/B] horizontal polarity which means you can get conflicting horizontal/vertical signals. Whereas 12438 is only horizontal which could explain why TVNZ signal is better. 2.Have you tried without the signal booster, while they make the signal stronger they can make the quality worse and should only be used if absolutely necessary. 3.As mds pointed out you need to confirm that the issues is in fact the a dish/sat signal problem not something to do with software.
