thanks spiderplant. I noticed that the tech who installed my samsung stb, tested the signals with the use of a handheld computer and said the signals were fine.. then proceeded to install the box and finally checked everything including a spectrum graph with plots on it - never seen this screen before on the older boxes. I never get any picture breakup - in fact this box seems to display crisper, brighter pictures with less pixelation and digital artifacts than any of the ntl pace boxes i've had before... so it is a real delight with my 42 inch screen. Just checked the SNR on the user info pages: it's 37.8 - is that too high? Return power: 48DBmV and the error screen shows: Post Rs Errors mainly on 666.750 89 CAK Callback connection failiure and 88 CAK callback connection attempt. Oh and the card status is 10. Other than that it is super fast to use and change channels.
PS: I had a cable re-pull from street cab to house year and a half ago as signals were not good..
