I am getting a new 622 on March 4th and I plan on having the installer take a look at a few things while he is here, but I wanted some opinions on whether or not my existing dish and signal strengths are functioning below expectations. I have been having a lot of issues with my existing voom channels on my 811. Rave and a couple other channels will barely come in.

I went into the install setup and here is what I have for dish information when I run a check switch. I have also provided my signal strength for each sat location. Should I potentially adjust the transponders?

Switch: DP34-500 LNB's: Twin-1(1) Twin-2(2) Dual-2(3)

DishPro Connections

Satellite: 119 110 129
Polarity: All All All
Device: Twin Twin Dual

Status: Satellite reception verified

- Superdish - Alternate

Strength Levels:
119 = 96
110 = 79
129 = 54
121 = 97
148 = 54
61.5 = 56
 
I'm not an expert, but I have problems when 110 is much less than 100 so I try to shoot for 110 at least 100 and 119 is usually 10-20 more for me.


129 at 54 would likely explain the VOOM channel problems.

If they're coming to do the install for the 622 I would ask that they peak the signal (which they may do anyway if they have any other hardware changes to make)
