i suggest you use the lowest signal transponder on any/all of them that you can actually get a meter bar on.


if you are able to raise the lowest, the highest should naturally come up.

Might be easier to peak with a stronger signal, and if it increases, the weaker signal will also increase.

As you move the dish, the weaker signal may disappear, but the stronger signal may drop down but not totally disappear.

Well heres the the#61.5=68 transponder2/119.0=82 transponder16/110.0=93 tranponder16 are these good signal reading seem a little low,is it because the signal is modfyed on the receivers,i have a 622/222 picture is great no break up any more.do my dishes need to be adjusted? Thanks

You definitely live in a different area of the US than I do, as those signal strengths are higher than I have ever seen on 110 with the new signal meter. Perhaps if you post your location, someone from your area can compare signal strengths with you. Comparing to signal strengths here, your 119 is acceptable, your 110 is outstanding, and your 61.5 is slightly weak. If you are further west than me, that would explain the 61.5 being a little weaker.
