Hi

    Yep, but take these measurements with more than a grain of salt. Each TV card handles strength & quality differently so they don't really mean anything. You can not use it as a dish positioner help, as it will not show anything unless you are positioned exact (most cards need a lock onto the signal to even start working at all).

    Sadly, it seems that development of MP2 has come to a stop. Perhaps it will restart in the future. Meanwhile... MP1 has a "Tuning Details" panel that displays signal strength, signal quality, and picture resolution. It is updated in real time when viewing a channel: However, perhaps you are already aware of this, but prefer MP2...

    Thank you very much for the tip. The Germany-Full doesn't have all the channels either. But I've now found out that I can read the frequencies using DVB-Viewer, which also receives all the channels I can receive. I'll use that to create my own channel file. Let's see if that works.
