Hi firstly sorry if this is the wrong section,Iam running my offical sly uk card through my Vu+ i noticed that iam only getting an snr of 61% and agc of 89% on slysports hd1, channel 4 hd etc this appears to be very low and iam guesing it does not leave a great deal for rain fade etc.I have a triax 1.1 dish and an inverto lnb,I notice that all the other sly sports hd channels have a far stronger signal.Is this normal for Astra 2a or are they having problems thanks

Even in the rain punisher,has that transponder always been so weak do you now why its very strange considering sly sports hd 2 has a snr of 92% and a agc of 82%


atleast you have 61% for snr, mine is 48% lol and works perfectly

truthfully i would not worry about it, no receiver exists that can give a true representation of the signal strength, at best they give a rough guide. as long as you can watch the channel you should be fine.

yeh i mean i got a vu duo but most im averaging 40% ish for most channels which isnt a problem, i mean i havent had any issues and i use just the basic sky dish too. needs to get me a motorised dish though. any recommendations lol :p

I use the triax 1.1 with the tm2600 motor and inverto black ultra lnb it works very well i would recommend that if your on a budget,i think it cost me £200 for everything inc install.

well i am thinking of getting a new dish but if anyone can help me with the best way to achieve what i want id appreciate. I want 28.2e and hotbird 13, but i want it so that i can use both tuners on the box for each satellite so i can use the recording functions too, and possibly for 2 vu duo. any help
