Note
Most areas of the United States will
not receive a peak satellite signal
strength of 100. Although there is no
picture quality difference between a
signal strength of 70 and 100 for
satellite signals and 80 and 100 for
digital TV signals, a higher signal
strength will limit any negative effects
in degraded conditions such as rain or
snow.
