[QUOTE="rpmnz, post: 233915, member: 57498"] Originally it was with the WDM and setup4pc when I hadd no TV server. I was getting only between 50 and 60% quality from the dish. I tried adjusting everything and it just wouldnt get any better. I have no obstruction between the dish and satellite either. The only other thin I could think off was the cabling itself. I have a mast head amplifier which I've been told I probably don't need as the run of cable is only about 15m. I do have joint in there though which could be another cause, although I've check all the joins etc and they seem ok. It was a case of me getting a signal and it working, then thinking it aint broke so why try to fix it further. I could replace the entire run of cable (relatively easy but costly) to take it out of the equation but again it worked at these quality levels so there was no need. Now that I have the splitter in it may force my hand. Oh and yes I did the install myself. I have an eliptical 75cm or 90cm dish I forget which. I had to play around for quite a while on the roof to get a signal and ended up judging off the neighbours one and fine tuning in each direction from there. Likewise forthe lnb I just move backwards and forwards to find the best signal. I guess I could get up there and check the alignment as you are quiet correct in saying it may just have moved a bit.
