Am I having signal problems ?
The bar on the now/next banner says 98%....in INSTALLATION -DISH SETTING it says "level 85% quality 80%"
So, are these good or bad ? Coz they sure ain't accurate ... I added 3db attenuation AND a DISEQC switch and the numbers were the same !
I'm getting glitches/freezes on some channels ...thought it was a server issue, but I disconnected and watched a free channel and its still there.
I running on a 1 year old sly minidish, with quad lnb.
We also have a freesat box into the lnb, that has the odd glitch too...which makes me think its the dish end ?

Them strengths seem fine. Sky aim to get it over 70% and mine is about 82% with no problems.
Could be moisture in the cable.
How long is the cable from lnb to receiver?
Could be a faulty lnb.
Is the f screw properly tightened at both receiver and lnb?
