Need A Stronger Signal

[GUS CAMPBELL]

Hi Guys

I Have A Dish Network 510 With A 1.8 Dish. My Signal Strenth Is About 55, And I Loose Reception With Clouds And Rain. How Much Bigger Dish Do I Need To Get Me Into The 70 Range? If I Went To A 2.3 Would That Get Me There?

Thanks
Gus

Try repeaking the dish first before doing anything. Your numbers are very low for a D500. You should be able to peak it much higher in the 80-90 range on 119.
