I use a TEAC stb and get perfect digital reception on ABC, 7, 9 and 10
but SBS varies from acceptable to no signal. Any ideas? Is SBS
signal lower powered thatn the other stations?

SBS transmits on UHF so if you only have a VHF aerial then it won't work
particularly well. Or if you are running 300 ohm twin cable instead of
coax.

If this is the case SBS analog should be noticeably worse than the other
analog stations as well.
