My system was just installed two days ago. We finally got HD locals here in the Altoona Pa area so I finally switched to DTV. Today we are getting the rain that is left from TS FAY so I thought I would do signal strength tests during moderate rain.
Thought maybe some of you gurus could get me your opinions.......

Here they are:

If it's not braking up and pixeling I guess it's not too bad. Hard to judge since there is no standard for 'moderate rain'.
Repost signals in clear weather and we can really judge.

Looks about right for moderate rain, but as Mertzen said there really is no way to tell if your alignment is good or not. The amount that rain effects your signal depends on a lot of factors (vapor in the air, cloud formations, locations, severity, etc.)
