[QUOTE="MCelliotG, post: 1120781, member: 404726"] Short answer: NO!!! Long answer: It depends exclusively on the type of tuner used in the receivers in combination with the tuner driver. Receivers with Silabs, Montage and Availink tuners can display dB natively and quite accurately. This includes brands such as Octagon SF, Edision OS series with E2, Mutant HD, Axas, new Dreamboxes etc. On the flipside, most tuners in VU+ receivers will either not display dBs or display them incorrectly, since Vu has a weird policy to create drivers that do not allow db readings, even if they natively support it. Some Gigablue models do that too. SF8008 is more than fine with dB. [/QUOTE]
