As mentioned in my most recent post I have a little monitoring report which I trust will be helpful.
Firstly I left DSLstats on overnight again, and there are several interesting images which I have attached. I won't include them all, but just the SNRM ones that are most revealing.
The overall picture is that both the US and DS SNRM virtually flatlined for most the night(early hours), but around 6 or 7am the DS began to rise till it peaked and remained around 6dB. It was a but wavy here and there but there were no dramatic spikes.
The other thing to say is that on the image 2014-03-24-11.13.41.png if you look over towards the right, just after 9.40am there is a small 'dip' in the US line for what represents a few minutes. I was out at the time, but my wife took a call from the vets that happened at exactly that period. After what I am sure was that call the US line reverts to something aproximating it present normal.
Later, at 10.40am I installed the new doubler, just after that I did both quite & ring-back line tests. I believe that the small 'v' in the US line is when I did those tests.
I then plugged the Sky+ box connection into the doubler and did further quiet & ring-back line tests. Again, I think that this can be seen in the variation on the US line.
By the way, the Quite line tests I did were into the connection on the front of the Master Socket, not the test socket, and with the new coupler attached there was hardly any discernable sound at all.
How you interpret this information?
