[QUOTE="Fisty McB, post: 1162950, member: 389824"] Signal is not weaker - in fact the required reception conditions between the old and new transmission formats are almost identical (just a 0.1db difference in minimum signal to noise ratio). Picture quality will depend on bitrate & compression codec in use (currently MPEG2, so unchanged from before) - some services have already moved to using MPEG4. [USER=411868]@Spc..[/USER] DVB-S transponders were still in use to support older Sky UK & Ireland Digital receivers that were issued or "sold" between 1998 to around 2007-8 that were DVB-S capable only, however support for these receivers are now being phased out.
