I know this is way off base, but since the upgrade, my OTA sig strength shows as high 90's (they were high 80's). Did something in the new f/w for sig strength change?

Now my sat strength was 93-95, since upgrade, it is now showing 84-86. This is on a sunny days, so it is not weather related. Not a cloud in the sky both readings (Today and last Friday).

On that note though, I had never had a rain out with the old 93-95 strength, as it dropped to low 80's during rain, but 2 days ago, we had a small shower, signal strength now since upgrade normally at 85, went down to 68 and I was experiencing freezing. Anytime it goes below 70, freezing. Is this normal?

I, of course, cannot say the new upgrade did this, but it sure seems coincidental
 
My sig strength definitely went down.

Today, is a small shower, my dtv dish is fine, my voom is below 70

I'll call service to get it repeaked
 
My satellite signal quality went down to 80s on Thanksgiving morning (perhaps due to the snow storm we were having that morning), but then it returned to normal 97. Haven't checked this morning, but it has been strong most of the time after the update.
 

OTA pblm since 2.3 update
