Just read on a satellite suppliers site that a "new improved model" is due in november 2014 one to watch for if your thinking of buying a new meter soon

And how do you get the vendor to respond to e-mail enquiries?
E-mailed them twice recently about distributors, and heard nothing...

CDTronix used to be a main retailer of First Strike meters, not sure if thats still the case though. If you ring them you need to speak to Dylan, thats who i always used to deal with. I use my FS1 more than my Rover meter now as its easier to carry up the ladder and is fine for most jobs.

Well I would like one, but I need to know the name of the Danish importer, and FS seem rather unresponsive...

any word from first strike st1? I would like to upgrade from my DVB-S meter (an FS1-SE) to a DVB-S2. I see on their website they mention units are due to ship to dealers Jan 26 2015. But what dealers where?

Any negatives or difficulties you found against the FS1-SE as I am being given this meter free (only used twice) by a friend.

Must admit.....like the appearance of the newFS1-Pro HD model, hope you manage to obtain one shortly. :)

I have the non-SE version of FS1 and I love it. Best meter I've used, beating hands down the Satlook Emitor Lite (which was just a pile of poo). Very sensitive and displays SNR even if there isn't enough for a lock.

Aw, I see, @chavo meant FS1-ProHD! Than I am sorry. But, even nobody here have ProHD version of this meter, it could not be bad one, as it was no problems with previous version. Ones more, Chavo, my apologies. :confused
