I have D* and when I view the signal meter the reading goes back and forth 1 to 2 points is this normal? My readings are for the most part mid to low 90's. Except for the spot beams tp 12,18,28 which read 0 and tp26 reads 51. This is for Sat. (101) and I forgot to mention these readings were taken on a clear day. Just wondering if this seems pretty normal or not. Thanks in advance. :)

Fear not Crazy 1. A minor fluctuation is normal and nothing at all to worry about. Now if it changed more that say 10 points at a time i'd say you had a slight problem depending on the weather worth looking into. Anything in the 90's is excellent and shouldn't be largely susceptible to weather related phenomenon.
