Hello!
I am new to EVE and I am getting started with exploration (I have done the tutorial already).

For some reason I can't get 100% signal using my probes on whatever data site/ relic site I find.

Do you know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

You are using a Navitas.

Try the Imicus. It has bonuses to probe strength which should make it much easier for you with low skills. I believe you get a free one from the exploration tutorial missions.

Edit: There are also modules and rigs you can fit which will improve your probe strength. Check the "scanning upgrades" section in the market and search for "gravity capacitor upgrade" rigs.

some sites require high probing skills to probe to 100%. also make sure you use a bonused ship for probing including the probing midslot modules.

If you have trouble a heron with 2 Rangefinding arrays works a charm
