Why 110 xponder 3 has low SS?

[mrsat1]

Can anyone give me an answer why 110 xpond. 3 is low around 75. In fact I checked several other locations show exact same readings. Also why are the SS
readings for 110 & 119 show SS around 100-110 except for the 119/ch.1 SS which
is 122. Why does E* use the 125 SS scale...Using a 622 & 625 receivers...rolou21.

transponders have different power levels

Currently at 72 over here.

I wonder why E* uses the 125 scale on the mentioned IRD myself. Good question. The most I've ever had on a 625 was about 116, typically about 106-108 where as a 301/311 the needle is bent.

New receiver more sensitive

E* used a 100 scale in the past but as the receivers became more sensitive it was necessary to expand the scale.

tr # 3 and 10 run on low power mode. All of the rest of e8 runs on full. E11 will soon replace e8 anyways and can likely handle a higher load wattage wise and hence we will not have this problem!
