Hi Guys

I'm using a 2 way splitter I bought from Maplin, which ive connected to the main cable that comes from the outside box. Then i've split it to the VM box and my eurovox max v.

Some days i get about 80% picture quality and everything is fine, and other days I get 77-78% so I get picture break up. Aaaaaaahhhhhhh

Is there anything i can do about this? Is it something to do with the weather? i.e rain, winds

Please Help

Thanks in advance.

Have You Scanned For Channels First Before Putting Slitter On ?
Theres Also A Booster On The Box Try Swiching That On To See If It Help

I've got all the channels, it's just some days i get picture breakup. I've tried putting the signal booster on but no change. Is there something else I can get to boost the signal?

Thanks

the true frequency of certain transponders is 0.5 but the eurovox will only round the frequency off to the nearest mhz eg 522.000 should be 522.500 try adjusting your transponders and see if it helps
