[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 168146, member: 175057"] You've bought a tool which requires some prior technical knowledge, you probably would have been better off getting the Digisat Pro, a basic but useful meter. First thing you do is set up the meter in the menu and tell it that it is connecting to a universal LNB. Then you connect it to the LNB and move the dish around until you see the signal bar increase as you get near a satellite, the meter has transponder presets for some satellites. When you have found a strong signal, go into the Digital display, this will show you the signal to noise ratio and bit error rate, they are a percentage display, so tweak for as high a reading as possible. This display should also tell you which satellite you are receiving. Test the signals on both horizontal and vertical. [/QUOTE]
