    what should my signal strength be?

    Thanks for the help guys, I was thinking that the signal strength was kinda low, but I had nothing to compare it to. I think sunday I will repeak the dish, been about ten years since I adjusted a dbs dish, but I assume it is the same as the DTN weather satellites, just adjust back and forth...

    what should my signal strength be?

    I will have to check it when it clears up, is it normal to totally lose one of them? I have both 110 and 119 back now, both at 83 to 84. I would think that they would both go down at about the same rate, not one go down by 10 and the other disappear. I'm not a satellite guy, I'm a land radio...

    what should my signal strength be?

    I live in northwestern Indiana, and I loose my signal on some or all satellites when it rains. Is this normal, what should my signals strength be? I know rain fade is common, but it is hardly raining and I have lost 119. And when it goes out, it just goes away, right now 110 is in the mid 70's...

    Does the pocketdish have a directory structure to it? Does it have any hidden files or folders? And in device manager does it say pocketdish or does it just say like ide hdd controller? Also when you said you copied stuff to dvd, is that stuff you captured in live mode or transfered via usb...

    New software spooling for 625 and 522 receivers

    l2.59 Hi, I'm new to this forum as I just recently got a 522, someone posted how to update software. Is that a specific procedure, or did they just mean it will update if you are locked on and power receiver off from remote? And has anyone gotten 2.59 yet or are we all still waiting.
