Hi All...I have 2 cw800's set up..with the new 1.60 bin 1 of the recievers works great, the other says "weak signal". It has to be a setting on the reciever itself right? Not having any luck at all trying to fix it. I did recieve advice to try turning ther tp up or down one but not quite sure how to do that. Any advice much appreciated.

have you tried to put the one that is getting week signal on the same line the one that is getting good signal just to make sure that it isnt your line running to the box also you can compare settings on the box with the other box to make sure you have it set correctly. if you get good signal on the same line the one box that is getting good signal on then i would sugest checking the line the other box is hooked up on

regarding my "weak signal". Forgot to say that its set up for both 110 and 119. 110 is coming in pretty good. Its when I switch to 119 that it says weak signal.

After a couple of hours shutting down, unplugging, going through the settings to make sure they match the other box, I am getting all of 110 but only abouth 1/4 of 119 channels. Have dual lnb and 2 switches. the channels that come through are great quality. Is it a frequency thing?
Thanks for looking.

Do you have 2 receivers connected together? That's what caused my problem. After disconnecting the 2nd receiver, 110W comes in got all the channels and no more scrambled channels or weak signal.

Please read my postings on "switch problem" in this forum, there is a description of what I had done by accident to fix this problem. I don't want to repost!
