How much sig do I need for 4dtv dcII??

[lonewolf454]

What is minimum signal level to lock dc II?

Is 66-80 signal enough? Sometimes quality shows (40-60), sometimes not,

Would like to get some sub programming from NPS if I have enough sig

My 922 falls apart at 35 quality. 50 will work good but higher numbers are better. The 920's fall apart at a much lower number like 20 or something. 66 to 80 should work fine. Go sub you should be okay.

I'm amazed

...at the picture quality of c-band. I had forgotten how good the pic quality was. Those pizza dishes dont compare. I got a sub via NPS and everything's a go. Now to get my Az set up. Do I hook this way dish > az > az loop out > dsr922? I assume I turn OFF lnb power on az settings.

Thanks for the rec. Recommend cband to anyone tired of dish and their so called HD. Heck, all I have is an old tired 6' I found and $15 worth of Belden cable and a piece of RG-6 U. Next week I'll get the ribbon cable, can get it for 75 cent/foot local.

Will be interesting to see if I can get dvb s2 with this little KTK 6 footer. I am still lookin for a 10 foot.

SD Bud masters are as good or better than the LSD's HD lite. HITS W5 is better than LSD's SD. Starchoice (Shaw Direct) has some very good SD & HD video too.
