*How To Fix or Increase Satellite Signal Strength Of A Dish Antenna*
The signal quality of a C-band Satellite dish can be determined by the materials used for construction, the focal length, sizes, LNB, cable and many more, don’t worry I will get you cover on how to increase satellite signal strength by 10-15% on any C-band dish, Let’s dive in.
*1.Obstructions Remove*
Satellite dish needs to be mount or sited where dish will be free from obstacles like buildings, trees and mask network. So to increase satellite signal strength, You have to mount your antenna at least 15m to 20m dish away from any obstacles.
*2.Cable Connection*
To increase satellite signal strength of your dish antenna, the cable connector like F-connector should be properly installed and connected to both the receiver and antenna. Preferably use coaxial cable with not more than 25m long i.e connection distance between dish antenna and the receiver.
*3.Choosing LNB with Low db Noise Figure*
LNB is another thing you need to consider to increase the signal of dish antenna. LNB with low db noise figure can boost your signal strength and quality with 15% above.
*4.Using Scaler Ring*
Scaler ring features with two important things, One is to increase the signal strength of a dish antenna for a satellite which your geographical location not cover, hence, Scaler ring will increase the signal strength from 5% to 10% and Secondly, Scaler ring helps to receive C-band signal on KU band dish antenna
*5.Dish Stand And Pole Should Be Well Mounted*
Signal strength usually reduce if the dish antenna standing or pole is not well straight and not properly aligned while mounting the the pole or standing. To increase the Direct tv Satellite Signal Strength of your dish antenna you have to make sure that the pole or standing must form 90 degree towards the earth surface.
*6.Focal Length or Point Must Be Accurate*
Focal Point is very important as far as installation of satellite dish antenna is concern because without knowing the focal point or length between the center of the dish to the feed horn or LNB, It will be very difficult to get signal or increase the signal strength of a dish antenna
*7.Using Brass And Removing LNB Cover*
Removing LNB Plastic cover always recommended to adopt anytime you are installing KU band dish antenna because it will make your installation fast and safe energy. After removing plastic cover and you still experience lost of signal due to beam or footprint, then using brass with LNB will be essential to increase the signal strength of a dish antenna by attaching the brass to the round surface of the LNB.
*8.Increase In Size Of A Satellite Dish*
After you have done all what I said earlier, The best thing you can do to increase the signal strength of a satellite dish is by increasing its size. For instance, if you are using 8ft dish antenna before without achieving or getting signal then, you can increase the size of the dish to 12ft. Same way you can increase Direct tv Satellite Signal Strength.
