I have a question about signal strength. I have an HR20 with the 5lnb dish. I also have one round dish still to get my locals (Toledo is not HD yet)

Here are my signal strengths. Do these seem correct?

101-32 transponders all at 92% or better
72.5-16 transponders at 92% or better
119-11 transponders at 97% or better
110-3 transponders st 91% or better
103-7 transponders at 0,0,0,95,0,96,96
99b-7 transponders at 0,50,33,50,31,89

Thanks

Bruce

Looking good. Those couple on the 99 and 103 sats that have lower numbers just means that you're not located where those spotbeams are aimed towards.

Mine are about the same, a little higher as I have mid 90's on all. Installer said it was a good signal for a 5lnb.

Interesting to see readings for the 72.5 Sat, which I don't get. I'm curious what programming is available on that one, if anyone knows? TIA. /steve

I think it's our SD locals in SC.
