    It sounds like Nagra 3 is creeping into your box slowly but surely Seriously tho m8 i was gonna say check your connections but you alreay have so maybe the tuner is on the way out.

    THE TRUTH
    The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

    Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
    The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

    Yea your SNR seems ok. If you have any splitters in m8 take them out and see if that helps.

    you want to try to get 55k or above, preferably above 60k. below 55k u can get picture pixalating and the chirping sound.....try a booster and or gently move the aerial connection on a prob channel and see if u can get snr above 55k, mines a little loose and needs to be adjusted from time to time.

    cheers
