Questions & Answers

Are you able to use this with Dish Network?

It is true. There is only one dish in my kitchen.

Can this device be used with the Directv Swm ?

The reason for not doing so is not apparent to me.

No power is being received by the unit?

This device needs a power source external to the device. Would you recommend either a battery pack or a portable charger? This can be either a transmitter or A Directv H24 receiver or a Genie HR54 or a dish network receiver and a battery pack to start up the LNB could be used.

It works with HD hopper, right?

It's not clear to me which HD hopper you are talking about. I stopped getting it to work just a short time We import products from China and other Asian countries Cleanliness is lacking. Please accept my apology for not being able to help. This is a true statement.

You've found what you're looking for
5/5

I've used digital units before, but this analog unit seems to work better because of the quick response time. It lets you know as soon as you're locked on to satellite with a tonal alert. A knob and a meter make it easy to fine tune. The measurements on my dish were the highest that I have ever recorded. There's no need to spend a lot on a good tool all the time. My recommendation is to do so.

Then this is the solution you need
5/5

A satellite that has all kinds of bells and whistles like full video decoding was what I was looking for with my more expensive digital meter. In the end, I couldn't find a single satellite after spending all these hours on the roof. But this analog meter, which cost a tenth of the price, showed up instantly. Within a few minutes, I am able to locate the satellite simply by listening to the tone. After that, I can scan it with my digital meter to figure out what The satellite I wish to see is quickly found after a few tries. This is the device you should definitely purchase if you will be installing a satellite.

I do not think HughesNet will support it
3/5

In the end, I gave up after spending a lot of time trying to align the antenna, and I paid HughesNet $125 to align it. We tried it on HughesNet and it did not work, as it must burn out HughesNet's units, as we went through three of them (this one and two from an alternate company), and got tired of climbing up the roof.

5/5

In order to see and hear the tracking signal, I had to use this device since I couldn't see or hear my TV turner. only needed a few minutes to get it in tune and it worked perfectly. Purchasing this product was fantastic.

Worked fine

Took a while to get used to. I haven't used it again since the first time. Getting the hang of it will take some time.

This meter is both affordable and effective
5/5

It works. The only thing you need to know is the azimuth of what you're trying to find because this meter can find any satellite, as I was able to find satellites I love it!.

I am having difficulty finding a satellite
3/5

It is difficult to use. In my case, I used the app DishPointer 2020 and paid the upgrade price of $2 for it. It was a good value at 99, it was faster than meters and the performance was very good.
