    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,

    Gibson.

    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)

    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.
    Regards

    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 ?

    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 ........
