[QUOTE="Taipan, post: 97729, member: 11681"] Moving the antena a few millimeters, or rotating it a few degress can have a HUGE effect on the signal strength. This is not unique to DVB-T, either. Remember that the RF signal strength is affected by walls (particularly brick or concrete) and other large conductive objects, like refrigerators. Simply because the antenna is not in a good spot now - if you move it back to where it was before, you will get the 90% figures. Well, maybe - signal strength does vary by the seasons too. No. YES I would be very, very surprised if doing that would make any difference at all... Interference won't affect the signal strength, but it may effect the signal quality (the bit error rate), especially if you have an indoor antenna and no quad-shielded leads feeding the signal to the TV card. HTH ... ;) [/QUOTE]
