The guidelines shown apply to the signal-to-noise ratio SNR.
The corresponding values of the FEC (forward error correction) have to
be taken from the tables of the satellite operators. If e.g. the
transponder has an FEC of 5/6, the SNR display must be at least 9 dB
to guarantee good signals.

Receiving Conditions
The quality of the input signal can be evaluated using the bit error ratio BER and the signal-to-
noise ratio SNR .
Recommendation: bit error ratio BER should be ≤1e-6
For DVB-T, the limit value for the signal-to-noise ratio SNR at DVB-T is 26 dB
and 32 dB for DVB-T2.
