[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 789097, member: 301161"] The thing is digital hides a lot. It either works or it doesn't, but it doesn't really show what's going on behind the scenes in the way analogue did. Anyway the MER speaks for itself. It is at the point of collapse for a 5/6 signal. Connect up a spectrum analyzer and rest one finger on an 80cm dish and the signal will unlock and transponders from 30E will swamp the signals from 1N. In the UK on a zone 1 minidish that satellite is 15dB MER. To get it at that power level here requires a 1.8m dish. [/QUOTE]
