Post subject: | TT C-1500 bad signal |
Hi, I use a Technotrend C-1500 budget and have problems to watch some channels. That means on some channels I get fragments on the screen and the sound suspends from time to time. Here is an example from my channels.conf: don't working RTL Television:450000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:1401:1402:53601 Super RTL:450000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:1501:1502:53602 RTL II:450000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:1601:1602:53603 VOX:450000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:1701:1702:53604 working DMAX:426000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_256:2291:2292:53617 Das Erste:113000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:101:102:28106 ZDF:346000000:INVERSION_AUTO:6900000:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:110:120:28006 has anybody noticed the same issue? Is there a solution? regards Dfr0g |

I assume you are using DVB-T. Many factors can affect Digital Terrestrial; Quality of aerial and downlead, transmitter power, local conditions, etc. In digital transmissions instead of each channel being broadcast on a separate frequency, several channels are mooshed together in a Multiplex (mux) which is transmitted at a single frequency. In your case we can see that the 4 channels you can't receive are on the same Mux. You might be not able to pick up this mux for several reasons: 1) It is being transmitted at a power that you cannot pick it up. This might be due as in the UK that the power is lower to stop interfering with neighbouring Analogue channels. So you may have to wait for analogue switch off to pick it up. ![]() ![]() 2) The actual transmitter is lower down the transmitter tower, so you don't have visibility of the signals. 3) Some problem with local interference or problems with your aerial/downlead that causes problems with transmissions at that frequency. Well, as above check your aerial/downlead for breaks, water ingress, damage and connector problems. The Belling-Lee push on connectors aren't very good, the RG-56 screw on type are generally much better. Also check that devices switching on such as a freezer, fridge or boiler are not generating the interference. Hope this helps Bruce S. |

No. I'm using DVB-C. I found a post in another forum that describes a problem with TT C-1500 and to strong signals. It sounds like my problem because in Mythtv I see on the not working channels a signal quality of 4db and higher. The working channels have a quality of 3.6db maximum. I ordered an attenuator to adjust the signal strength. I will post the result. regards Dfr0g |
