[QUOTE="4wd, post: 954215, member: 393358"] The meter won't show anything (or give some erronous result) for the DVB-S2 HD frequencies. But tuning in on a SD frequency will (in my experience) give a good result for any nearby HD. Example Astra on 2E, with a SD only meter, tune dish to best possible 10818 V (BBC SDs), then 10847 V (BBC HDs) will (should) be fine as well (ref [URL="http://flysat.com/astra28.php"]FlySat Astra 2E/2F/2G @ 28.2° East[/URL]). That's the way I do it, still not got around to buying a decent satmeter. Having receiver and tv in view from the dishes, my 'meter' is an old SD receiver with a very good\very fast level\quality bargraph. And a cheap beeper-meter with kompass for initial\rough dish adjustment. But the day I buy any meter, it will definitely be dvb-s2 compatible. [/QUOTE]
