    bm7000s signal strength

    Installed a bm7000s yesterday on a zone 1 sky dish

    when moving the dish hit 71% on first transponder so stored the dish and done a blind scan

    however some transponders are like 45-60% but the meter stays green in the top right corner, is this ok? Would this affect any glitching? While I installed it it was fine flicking through the channels etc.

    This morning tho there has been glitching could it bethe dish? or more than likely the cs server?

    thanks

      different transponders have different strengths so its always best to try high/low and h/v when aligning a dish to peak the signal. 45% sq is a little low and fine tuning your dish could get a higher reading although different stb,s have different tuner calibrations also. the test will come in heavy rain! regards mdt
