<P dir=ltr>This was with my masthead amplifier on.</P>

<P dir=ltr>I have read that the NOVA-T reports SNR as 0 when it is 100% but not sure.</P>

<P dir=ltr>It seems that my reception is good, but the symptoms of my pixelation would suggest otherwise. Kind of difficult to know where to go to from here. Should I try a different tuner? Or look for faults on the playback side of things, that is assume that the reception is not the cause of my pixelation.<BR></P>
