I just had my Hopper system installed 2 days ago and was checking on the diagnostics screen to make sure it was working ok. After running the system info it detected LNB drift. It says 0x0e, 0xa7, 119(e -13). Is this normal? So far I've not had any issues other than some random audio dropouts. Should this be looked into? Also the installer used the same dish and lnb from a previous install done 6 years ago.

Thanks!!

I am curious myself what the limits on lnb drift are on the different receivers such as the 311, 211, 522/625, 722 and Hopper. I seen a 311 at (e-15) or (e-13) on all the three lnb's connected to a DP-34 switch but the signals came in fine.
 
Seems like drifting occurs alot more when you run any system through a 34 switch.

All the techs working in the Super Dish days knew how bad those were for it..
