[QUOTE="Nightmare77, post: 97718, member: 13579"] Anyone know if there are any factors that affect signal strength with Digital tuner cards? the reason i ask is a while back having the tuner running on my server i was getting quite a decent signal through internal antenna. It was around 90% for most channels which was fine, this was quite recently after a fresh windows install. Anyway laterly i'm finding that the signal strength seems to be done a bit now, i know the antenna isnt' exactly in the same spot as its been moved but its essentially int he same area. Why do you think i would be getting around 73-75% on the best channels and around 60% on other channels now? Does this relelate to drivers and updates? or is it all purely position of the antenna? I have a feeling if i formatted the server and re-installed from scratch i would get a better reception strength again? If anyone has any ideas much appreciated so i dont' have to format Just had a thought , maybe i'm getting interference from the antenna , as the cables ont eh back of the computer are near a lot of the power cables in the back of the desk and computer, do you think if the antenna cable is close or touching a power cable i would be getting 10-15% loss in signal strength?
