    its hard o know jack, last 2/3 days its been spot on but i have not changed anything.... hard to pin point a problem when its perfect 40% of the time and brutal 60%. might buy a new down convertor and see what that does

    just looking at signal strength now.....
    level 88%
    quality 65%

    the quality varies from about 63 - 68
    is this strong enough or should i keep trying moving the aerial about?

    guys as i am living along the atlantic coast my aerial has experienced some force 10 storms and driving rain,and i can honestly say i dont have those problems.youre aerial must have a clear sight of the transmitter(no trees ,chimneys etc.)when you say rain affects it worse there may be a chance that rain is getting in to the downconverter i wouldnt bet on it though cause they are quiet sturdy,
    coupe can you borrow a good woking converter and a reliable 24 volt power supply ,just might save you a few bob in the long run
    best of luck/jack.............

    coupe have you checked aerial lead connection to downconverter to make sure no moisture is getting through you really need a good seal there.
