Good day, I have this vu solo 4k I haven’t used for a long time, I just realized that the tuner is weak when compared with other sat receivers I have. What could be the problem, is it that vu solo 4k tuner is not as sensitive as others? Thanks

Hi,
What kind of tuner compared for?
I've DM920 & Zgemma, both well sensitive.
However I haven't VU models.

Yes very poor signal when compared with other receivers.

Signal readings from one manufactures box to another can be different.

If your suffering from signal dropout from the VU+ 4k and not on your other boxes well then your right the VU+ 4K has a weak tuner.

It’s unfortunate one can’t change the tuner since it’s attached to the board. Anything someone can do to improve the tuner?

I find the Additional slot single or twin tuners are pretty good, They support blind scanning ( though not the best ) seem pretty sensitive.

The FBC tuners are just fine with decent signals though.
