View Full Version : Satellite Meter
Which is the best satellite meter which tells you which satellite the dish is currently aligned to and the current signal level on the dish.
Some links would be helpful.

mate if u was close by i would help you out
if u need to borrow my analogue one in the mean time gimme a shout
ill wait till i get the beez neez motor and dish and ill give you a shout, u can make a trip up from where u are n get up the ladder while i tell u if i got a signal (old analogue days haha) :p
lol i have a £10 meter and it works like a charm. just line up with 28.2 east and confirm by tuning to bbc news. do the same for 30 west on bbc world then line up to 0.8 west. if you can hit those three the rest will all fall in no problem, all without having to re-mortgage your house on a sat meter.
Punisher, you shouldn't be making invitations for people to guide your ass in open forum:D:D;)

Still a tried and tested method. I did one in Jan for a friend using the signal test on the box worke a treat.
