Hi I recently had freesat installed in dry weahter the signal is 82% and 100 % quality however in rain it goes down to 78% signal and 90% quality. In fairly heavy rain and wind . I haven't seen it in torrential rain yet is this normal? . Also in rain the picture does break up a little not much though. I'd like to know If this is a normal thing also if my normal signal in dry weahter is perfect my dish is High up on a wall it has nothing blocking it .

I am in Towcester. My picture is perfect unless it's raining moderately to heavy but is 82% signal and 100% quality in normal conditions perfect why do they have the same mini dishes in the north of England then if they don't work well there I have a zone one dish Towcester is fairly south Central I'd say .

I've seen the same zone one dishes as far north as Newcastle upon Tyne. I'm new to satellite tv I used to have freeview I find freesat much better so far despite the signal loss in rain in light rain it does seem to affect it at all .
I'm interested though what sort of signal would a zone 1 sky dish get in Newcastle or shetland .
