[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1138353, member: 74879"] Would you have a standard TV/Sat tuner in parallel to watch and see if you observe artifacts such as pixelation? The 95/80 are relatively meaningless as this number is reported by the driver. It is not an absolute signal strength measurement. Given the observation that strong winds affect the signal, I would rather believe that your dish is not 100% oriented in the right direction plus maybe not sufficiently fixed. When high winds now start moving the dish, you are really losing focus ;) Either you get a professional out there to measure the signal strength and adjust the position or you try to get one of these cheap dish finder tools, although these are not very precise, yet better than nothing.
