I have a Directv system with 2 RCA boxes. Signal strength on all odd
transponders is below 50. Strongest even transponder signal I can get is
about 86 on transponder 26. Voltages at the dish are 12.5 VDC and 17.8 VDC.
Some channels come in great: 202, 204, local channels e.g. 980, 981 in
Atlanta. Other channels have bad dropouts, pixelation, clicking in the
audio. There is no consistent correlation between odd/even channels and
reception quality. The LNB looks to be in physically good shape, no
deterioration of the plastic. I get the same reception quality on both
receivers.
Any ideas what the source of the poor reception quality on some channels is
caused by?
TIA, Jim
