[QUOTE="ameolive, post: 55633, member: 175604"] I'm in Rome and coming back from my summer holiday yesterday ( it was sunny and temperature over 30 deg ) I have also noticed a deterioration in CH4 signal ( occasional pixelation and picture freezing ). I have immediately checked the signal strength on 12.168 ( the CH4 frequency ) and everything was fine, I mean I had the usual 100% strength and 30% quality : values with wich I always received CH4 even in moderate rain conditions here in Rome ( 80 cm dish) To fix the problem I appllied the same procedure that I used when 2 months ago I experienced the same odd behaviour : I accessed the 'MANUAL TUNING' menu and added CH4 from 12.168 then I selected CH4 from the 'OTHER CHANNELS' menu and surprise surprise all the pixelation and image freezing disappeared !. In light of the above, in my humble opinion, rather than a change in the 2A/2B footprint I think that the CH4 that we are currently receiving on program 104 of the EPG is being sent from a weaker transponder the reason for this are of course totally obscure to me. Hoping that helps . Ciao Ameolive [/QUOTE]
