Re: antenna power 30% quality 100% - how to set up a satellite dish

Question

Hello, there is a problem with the antenna, I have a satellite TV with Orange, the problem is that the antenna is set so that the power shows at 30% and the quality at 100%. Why is the power so weak or does it depend on the antenna position since the quality is 100%? the second thing I bought a...

Are you sure you have the right satellite signal? do you have any picture on these 30 and 100%? the meter is set to 75% -100% sensitivity and you are looking for a signal by turning the antenna, when the pointer reaches 10, then you turn the sensitivity a little down so that the pointer is at 5, then turn the antenna again until you have a pointer at 10 and as long as you repeat how you are able to get a better result than before turning down, remember that tightening the antenna can change your values, the main thing is to catch the signal of the correct satellite

SAT-FINDER METER is your colleague wrong?

marcinpiotr · Answer

rather the correct satellite is caught, when it comes to the image, it shows nothing at these parameters and now I do not know if the power is so weak is the fault of incorrect antenna settings or connections, antenna, decoder or maybe a faulty convector?, and as for this meter I connected correctly, but the power supply from the decoder goes to it because the backlight works, but is it connected to the convector or does it not vibrate (dead indicator) and does it help to set the sensitivity because if I turn the knob on this meter I turn right or left is nothing gives a pointer or a twitch

Because you have a lime cable as well as a converter from the ORANGE set. You bought a toy pointer. The INDICATOR shows how you push in and it works. Because it's INDICATOR. Added after 2 [minutes]: Rather, I would not catch her but set the antenna on her. Rather chances with this toy. It was a shame to spend money. Added after 1 [minutes]: If this indicator and this toy does not work properly and as prompting is misleading.

Because you have a lime cable as well as a converter from the ORANGE set. I have not heard yet that the linden cable had a lot in common with the signal strength, with the quality of course it has but this one is 100%. You bought a toy pointer I also have such a toy and in good hands it is the most useful device. In my opinion, it is either the wrong satellite or the converter is from the older ones (unfortunately I do not know what Orange has) which should be turned in the handle at the right angle, here the signal strength will be of great importance. Well, properly set the antenna if it is set to the right satellite. It may still be too small a bowl, but I assume Orange gives the right size.

Well, a colleague still has to stick his ear. As you can see, the author can not be included in the group of efficient ones. And such a toy, as you can see, is a problem ideally set the plate itself and where to measure the cable or converter.

And when it reaches only 8, what then? What? Mine is 20 years old and working properly. What will it matter to you? Usually, the force in the hand is very important for turning the converter.

And these new do not need to be set at the right angle? @marcinpiotr - check again if you did everything according to the instructions

LeDy · Answer

If the dish was set to the proper satellite, then with this strength and quality must be reception. Instead of thinking, get yourself set up correctly.

KOCUREK1970 · Answer

I also bet that this is not the satellite.

DiZMar · Answer

Normal chat. Everything is fine but it doesn't work. How do i know that He probably got Astra so seriously.

maksar · Answer

Nothing happened there, only the resistor burned.

DiZMar · Answer

Exactly.

marcinpiotr · Answer

The problem was solved, the replacement of the antenna cable helped, there remains a problem with this meter that maybe some suggestions are not working?

Pedros050 · Answer

Is the input and output described on this indicator? And depends how you hooked it up?

Anonymous · Answer

Once again it is an indicator. I suggest you buy a new toy for PLN 10. Over and over again.

maksar · Answer

It's not hearing, it's a lack of knowledge.
