Hi,
Looking to get a new meter to ensure I have optimised my 2D reception.
Looking to spend up to 600GBP (will go to a 1000 if really large differences in meter performance are available). Want to optimise 2D whilst still getting a watchable signal on Eurobird 11642.00 V , so quick change between transponders would be nice.
Would like SS SQ MER readings and a spectrum analyser, not worried about tv picture on meter as I can take a portable tv and receiver on the roof for that.
Need a machine that will give me reliable info, in case after the weather settles down here and the dish is fully aligned I still have problems with BBC london etc I want to try what Iceman has done to his dish and other things for which a good meter is the only way to go.
The meter I am thinking about getting is the Horizon HD S2 but there is also the Rover ST 2 and I have seen a few well spec´d meters on that well known web auction site.
Recommendations would be good please (but meters need to work on the weak transponders – unlike my Satlook NIT Digital). Thanks
