Re: [slim] Is This Normal?
Ooops, I did it again, bought a Squeezebox Classic from PC World. Only one in there, it's been languishing on the shelf for months. They had Radios for £140 and a single Boom at £150. This was in Braehead, Glasgow. They really are very focused on the mp3s docks in there though, that and DAB radios. I guess they are a lot easier for people to understand. Time to sell off my last Receiver I suppose, unless I can find some excuse to keep it -- havoc1 havoc1's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=33466 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72238 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Knowing that the SB3 are now discontinued, I've been considering buying a spare SB3 in case something happens to the one that's currently hooked up to my main system...I already have a Boom in the office, and another in the bedroom. -- Benefactor Benefactor's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=25904 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72238 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

[slim] Is this normal??
Hello ppl, I noticed that in the place where my wireless SB2 is located, the signal strength is somewhat higher (30%-36%)when the external antenna is disconnected from the rear... (28%-33% with antenna connected) Does the SB2 deploy diversity antennas? Any thoughts on why a behaviour like this would occur? Also I noticed that when I replaced the external antenna with an external antenna from a wireless SB1 the signal is the best among all 3 scenarios (33%-44% range).. As far as I know there is not a hardware difference between the 2 ext antennas, right? The only difference that I can tell is mechanical i.e. the new antenna screws in normally and one can still rotate the angle clockwise-anticlockwise at the end after..hm..screwing.. :) This seems normal to me, right? The old antenna screws in somewhat more tightly, and at the end you can not rotate the antenna freely..you have to loosen it back a little bit..rotate to the desired angle and tighten it afterwards. Could this difference in tightness explain the better signal for the old antenna? Any thoughts?
