[QUOTE="smiffie, post: 653197, member: 286019"] I had the same problem last night setting up a DM600 with 85cm solid and 0.1dB Icecrypt LNB. I updated the satellites.xml file to give a full scan on 16E. I get 75% signal on Viasat History but the BER is in the order of 10K causing signal breakup. On my DM800 with 85cm Mesh and Invacom 0.3dB LNB the signal rate is 66% with BER 0-50 and perfect picture. I'm confident the dish is aligned as the SNR figures are good from 28E right through to 30W. I suspect the LNB, whilst they claim 0.1dB and performs well on other satellites, I'm not convinced and believe these signals are just on its threshold. I think I will try the skew method and also try another LNB out of interest. [/QUOTE]
