SIGNAL IN 95 Satellite weak?

Was watching cricket yesterday and was getting pixleation.  We did have some rain/snow here yesterday. Today it's not doing it and the numbers seem better than they did yesterday. Here's what I am seeing:

1-8   95 N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A 88 N/A

 

9-16  0   95  N/A  89   90  N/A  94  N/A

 

17-24  N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A 92  N/A N/A

 

25-32  N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A

 

 

Should those numbers be higher?

those numbers are good, but I believe transponder 9 should not be zero.

Thanks, The Installer is a neighbor of mine and he gave me his number so I am going to give him a call, I think the picture could be just a bit clearer than it is and like I said, it was pixelating pretty good yesterday. Thanks and Merry Christmas!Laughing

Service tech will determine if it's an LNB or mulitswitch problem and replace the appropriate components.

UPDATE: I Called Directv back as that installer did not call me back.  The tech person on phone said that based on My zip code and location etc, that is as good as that will get.  I am on the fringes where I live.  The picture tonight is very, very clear, Once in awhile, bottom of screen pixelates but nothing like it was doing last week.  It is also raining tonight, just like it was last week when this happend.  And I swear the picture tonight is just about HD Quality, I know it's not but very close jjst to give you an idea how it looks. Thanks again for all your responses. I have learned so much on here!
