I get the following signals here on the east coast. NC

99 sat

tr-signal
1-0
2-93
3-0
4-89
5-0
6-0

103 sat
1-0
2-95
3-95
4-11
5-51
6-79

Does this sound correct, because my my installer claimed that the 2 spaceway sats were not launched yet. He also said that the grey zinwell multiswitch that came out with the 72.5 and 95 sats 2 yrs ago would work, I told him that you needed the new switch that went to 2150 mhz. I finally got him to change the switch.

The signals you get are dependant on where you are. The Spaceway sats (yes, they were launched!) use spot beams, so signal strengths will vary. AFAIK, the only switch that works is the Zwindell 6x8, although the 6x16 is either out now or will be soon.
