Just an observation really that I noticed some time back.

My third multi tuner is set to cable and the SNR is always low, it fluctuates between 55 and 63.

At first I thought it might be the cable or connector but if I put my OS Mini in place of the Mega then the SNR is 98 to 99.

It this low because it's a multi tuner and not a dedicated tuner.

Thanks.

I wouldn't take much notice of these levels from these boxes. I get 3 different readings on 3 different boxes when plugged into the same connection. ( one at time of course)
I believe these readings are not very accurate.

I agree, I have noticed the same on my boxes

also the same for my third tuner on osmega which is a dvb-t (freeview) tuner, it shows SNR 35-40%. My actual signal on TV is 99%

Third tuner on mine 45% when set as dvb-t, when set as dvb-s 96%, tuner 1 and tuner 2 report 96% as well. Picture quality is fine whichever mode I use.

Ok cheers guys, yes the picture is fine just wondered why it was low that's all.

Will ignore it from now on.

Thanks for the feedback.
