    I'm only getting about 27% (11718) on the Visionsat, but it is locked and viewable, just a little occasional minor pixellation. 11800 is running around 80%...this pattern is pretty typical of whatI have been seeing with my setup for the last couple of weeks, not sure why, 11720 used to be around 50-60%.

    TiminMB are you in the eastern part of the US, I'm in Ohio and I believe Iceberg is in the western Part of the country, it seems the farther west you go the better it comes in. I hope the new satellite corrects this because right now I'm only getting half of G10

    11720 is a bit lower for me tonight. It's varying from 47 to 53 %. Normally it is a solid 57%

    I'm about 8 hours drive pretty much straight North of Iceberg's location. Now its possible something isn't right on my dish, but I find 11720 varies from close to 50% on my Mercury II, down to below 42% which seems to be the threshold for getting a picture. Its been real windy lately around here as I hear its been South of the border as well. I'll have to get up on the roof and make sure everythings tight.

    Well the fact that my signal dropped that fast in one day would seem to lean towards an allignment issue, but 11800 is still comming in strong

    Maybe there's a perfect L O S between me and G10, while G18 has gotten between you and G10 giving just enough interference to knock out 11720, but not enough to knock out 11800...??? Or at the least, maybe it's wet cloudy enough between you and G10 to knock out 11720, but not wet cloudy enough to knock out 11800...????
