Well my install has finally come. Michigan microtech will be here between 8am and 12pm tomorrow. I will report back on their install. Can someone give me a quick simple cheat sheet on signal strength for all five transponders.

I am in the Detroit area so not sure which stats to look at.

101
110
119
99
103

Thanks

u said 6 transponders but i think you mean satellites....there are only 5....the 2 that are 103 are the same.

depending where you live some transponders may be inactive for locals etc but generally u want high numbers.

on the 101 #s should be high as they are only sd channels which are easier to get.

on the 103c its hd channels so you should try and have nothing less than 84 reading on most of them.
