which
dtv pal do you have the first which is the tr40 had a weak tuner the
dtv-
pal plus has a much improved tuner and is the tuners used in the
dtv-
pal DVR. the old ones had tr40 had a weak tuner, so don't judge the plus and the
DVR by the tr40. I have installed PLus in deep fringe in NC and had great results.
