[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 755019, member: 325666"] Hi CH .. If you mean what changed regarding this bird .. 2 things .. One of which is beyond my control .. Quite simply ..as Huevos says ..the signal is a little bit stronger ...and changes some throughout the day .. The second thing .. I had another one of my daft ideas.. Because my dish is 6 petal construction ..and no way possible they can match perfectly .. I thought what if one petal outperforms another ..insofaras ..one or maybe 2 align to increase gain ..but the effect is cancelled by a misaligned petal in another quadrant of the dish .. This being so perhaps I can point the lnb slightly off centre biased in favour of 1 petal or group of petals to the disadvantage of its opposite petal or group .. So ..I tried off centring the lnb in sequence toward each petal in turn ..until I presume ..the best 'in phase' match was found .. Voila ...a 'sweet spot' was found .. it produced the much needed 0.3 db ..and the lock was sustainable .. at least long enough to drag the channel info from the stream .. Does this make any sense ? It did to me ..and the proof as it were ...is in the pudding .. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
