There is a thread just below this on the satlook micro, you can download the user handbook from www.emitor.se

What are you unclear about?

It appears the emitor site is down at the moment. All the meter will do, is tell you when you have found a satellite, I haven't used the micro, as I have the NIT, which uses a spectrum trace to locate the satellites. I believe that you have to set up the transponder database to suit the satellites you are looking for. this level of meters really require a degree of prior knowledge to use them effectively.

Every bit of information you could possibly need is on here and in fact in this section. Finding one satellite is easy, once you have worked out roughly where to point the dish, you slowly move the dish from side to side and up and down until the meter shows a signal, then you lock up the dish and check if you have the right satellte, if it is the wrong one, then it will give you an idea of where you need to move the dish to.

Invest a little time in reading the sticky posts and using the search function.
