New to Dish, what is normal Signal?

[Dabadguycr]

I'm in North Texas. We just got Dish Network after being with cable for a very long time. They had to point the dish Southeast since we have a lot of trees. It seems that we run in the 50-60 signal strength range on a clear day on most channels. Only a few channels drops below or above that range.

So is this a good range or should I tell dish to send someone back out to make it better?

Years ago DISH changed the meter system it no longer goes to 125% but for some crazy reason they chose to make "normal" signal 50-70%.. In north Texas your signal is good

THAT is a good signal.

Thank you both.

Anything above 35 is a good viewable signal. It's not 125%, but 125 points.
