[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 496191, member: 6969"] What I hate about most cheap "satellite meters" is it does not tell you which satellite you have lined up the dish on. You will probably find 3 strong signals close together, from Hotbird and 13 degrees E, Astra 1 at 19 degrees E and the one you want, Astra 2 at 28 degrees E. So standing behind the dish, it is the one furthest to the left that you want. The satellite meter I use is actually a small satellite receiver and small tv screen in the box, so you can be sure when you have the right satellite as you can see a pictue on the screen. [/QUOTE]
