</div>Thanks for that, I forgot to say that I do have the following line in my<br>
/etc/modprobe.d/options<br>
<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
options dvb_usb_dib0700 force_lna_activation=1<br>
<br>
<br>
</div>What signal strength readings are aqequate for DVB-T reception?<br>
<br>
This assumes that interference isn't a problem.<br>
<br>
I would like to guage how much work I have to do to improve the signal..<br>
