Rustyboy: You might as well try an amplifier on the point, given that the PVR works OK, but if there is a problem with the cable, such as water ingress, it won't be able to fix the problem.
I think you have already worked out to leave the power supply for the masthead amplifier where it is.

Darren Bromley: See in your "MY SETTINGS" box at the top right, it lists the three best RF channels to use as "Spare RF".

Vale: You can fit a "dual arm" to a satellite dish to do this, but it a rather tricky thing to do.
Also, you can't use two clusters with a Freesat box.
You might find the best thing to do is to fit a second dish and use this with a "generic" Freesat receiver. You can get such systems from places like Maplins, and I have seen them in B&Q.

mark hawes: The signal you will receive depends on your distance from the transmitter - it is the ERP listed divided by the distance squared.
45 to 65 dBuV is the typical range for Freeview reception, 33.4 dBuV being the absolute minimum.
