Signal Strength

I'm getting on average about 85% on 110A, 65% on 110C and 85% on 119B. Is this acceptable? I have a completely unobstructed view of the sky.

I don't ever lose signal except in a decent rain storm. I wonder, however, if my signal was stronger it might hold on a bit longer in rain.

Is it worth having an installer come back out to tweak, or should I just wait for the MPEG 4 dish equipment to be available and then get it tweaked better?

Welcome to Satelliteguys! Your signal for 110C is a bit weak but if your not having any problems I would not necessarilly call out a tech. I think its a good idea to either try to tweak it yourself or wait until Mpeg 4....

101 and 119 are your only concerns if not just the 101 depending on where you get your locals unless you geet foreign or hd from the 110. those are good strenths and for stronger i would recommend a powered multiswitch which you can pick up pretty cheap to get you through some of them storms. i have 2 because i have 9 receivers and my normal strength is around 97 and around 86 during storms
