Hi dOOds, had a very low signal from these two channels for some weeks. Thought it was my fine tune out of sync, but maybe not after reading your post.

Best wishes from,

Signal reduced by Broadcaster again

Very weak here on the West Coast of Ireland also. Down to 41% (7.3) on my Channelmaster 1.2. Normally a lot higher (and there's no rain today)

Its going ok here with my 1.25mtr with an Inverto black ultra and spider in w.london, the weathers fine and I get 75% signal and 60% quality, the picture drops out at below 50%, I'll see what its like in bad weather.

West Wales coast 1.3m prime focus dish and Technomate 1500CI+.
Grey with spots of rain and ESPN breaking up ----- until I looked out the window a found that my better half had parked the garden rubbish wheelie bin between the dish, at ground level, and 15W !!
Moved bin and pictures restored --- only about 42% quality but stable.

TM1500 thats going back a bit, still got one in the cupboard.
Very true !!
Having paid good money for various "future proof" boxes over the years I said enough is enough !!
Be great to have a crystal ball and see what's next in the pipeline .....

A mate of mine has watched diema 39e and espn carib all season on a TM1500 with a 80cm, if the power on espn has been lowered maybe he's only getting fair weather reception now ?

Still solid signal in NW England.
S70% & Q66% on a Spiderbox 9000HD 1m GIBERTINI Dish/Dark Motor, Titanium3 0.1db Twin LNB.
BBC Persian SD is S74% & Q90% as a reference.

Yes looked at it today 6pm all signals were increased to near normal again .
BUT..This of course will change again tommorrow like it did for past few weekends now especially when football is on LIVE so expect signals to be reduced again tommorrow : ) !

Went to watch the MotoGP today on 15W and "no signal".
Earlier during the tennis it was perfect so I just left it on ESPN 902 syndication to see what would happen ..
With 11 laps to go the picture slowly appeared and remained there but partially disappeared around 5 laps to go then came back perfect and has been perfect since.
We had clear skies so I think this bird is on the wobble ........

ESPN x 2 at 15W is renowned for 'coming and going' - well it is for ME Oscar mate!

For your information.
Today tried to squeeze some more quality signal from 15 W.
I normally have my LNB skewed a few degrees to the right as looking at the dish from the front as this is the best across the arc.
Not so on 15 W ---- I need it skewed a few degrees to the left for a big increase in quality on ESPN.

OK as my dish is at ground level.

Was 'no signal' for me at 930am today, then by 10 am it was back at 70%!
Seems to be part of the course - exactly as I commented a few posts ago!
