Signal Strength

[Chris36]

I have EA and 118.7 and a 722k. Here is my signal strengths I'm in Rhode Island. I had a little better strength before should I repoint my dishes?? And is it normal for the signal to go up a few degrees at night then drop during the day?? I remember the numbers were up 8 points before on most of the satellites. So maybe the wind moved it a bit. Been up since May.

The signals seem pretty average. Go into system info (6,1,3), wait for it to test 100 percent and see if it gives you a message in red at the top. If you are losing signal during the day you may have a heat issue in the cabling or LNB

72 and 118 look normal. 61.5 and 77 look a little low

72 and 118 look normal. 61.5 and 77 look a little low

I agree so looks like the dish skew is a bit off.

I chatted online with Tech they said that's normal with the signal strength I don't think it is. Don't know if the guy was new or didn't know what he was during. I said we get alot of wind and it could of moved the dish a bit. I wanted someone to come out and check it out.
