      why, are you having same problem with astra n1 channels on 28.2e?

      Btw, Astra N1 is mainly UK footprint.

        For me, there is no problem with Tuner performance but with its limitation. L tuner not able to tune High symbol rate transponders.

          No I haven't got those problems but I experience low signals on all channels since this winter has passed and think that maybe this would be nice upgrade to my DM800hd?
          Maybe just LNB needs change, or as I heard lately that old cable line if it's more than 20meters needs change to new one that would also boost signal!
          That's the case.

                  Tell me what is the improvement in signal boost after replacement of M tuner. i.e. What was it on some channels before and what signal percentage after replacing of the tuner???

                    Re: dm800 tune failed

                    Before that change, i am unable to tune the higher symbol rates like on 100 E such as 40700, also on Hotbird 11258 is not good for me before and now it is much better. On eurobird 9E 11881 have some glitches before, now it is working fine. BBC HD have 62 SNR before and now have 75.

                      just got my ALPS M tuner, it fixed the problem.

                      maybe the other tuner had design fault or maybe not compatible with sky mini dish and LNB.

                          You say BBC HD signal rate 62 on L rev. and afterwards on M 75%, it's a huge difference in boost, whole 15 percent !!!
                          Glad to have spent 37 euros that well.

                            yes, Not only for BBC HD, but most of DVB-S2 channels on different sats.

                                Hello Vimmers, suppose question is directed to Rizwan or Bazinga.
                                My tuner hasn't yet arrived! In my case, it's DM800 HD original with these problems as well as lower signal reception. Reportedly signal boost is to 2 dcbl. or to 15-20%, which is awesome, as I understood.
