For a looong time I have used a channel master dual satellite meter (I have two, one is an Advantage version of the Channel Master.) Very recently something has happened. As I tune in at the dish itself, the meter is showing good signal, yet at the box it will show poor signal. With some help from others, I can get a strong signal showing at the box, but a poor signal showing on my meter up at the dish. It is doing this with both meters. I do mostly 1000.4 (eastern arc) installs.
Could BOTH meters be acting up, have they made changes as far as what/how the satellite is broadcasting, or do I just need a digital meter?
I'm stumped.
