Satellite Signal Strength Meters
Locking on to a satellite signal is effortless when you use a satellite signal meter. Finding the correct satellite and getting good signal strength is very important when you're using a dish mount RV satellite. Locating a signal is very difficult without a satellite signal strength meter.
The new satellite meter units, like the Digisat Pro Dual Meter, are digital and can track two satellites at the same time, The Digisat Pro has an LCD display that shows the signal strength of land and marine satellite TV units. The strength of the signal is displayed as a bar graph, and there is also a number associated with the strength of the satellite signal.
For those who are looking for a basic satellite meter, we offer the analog satellite finder (200-992) which is very accurate and helps in finding the satellite signal when tracking only 1 satellite. We also recommend getting a satellite compass such as the Winegard SC-2000 which helps in getting the rough direction to point the satellite dish to. Using the satellite strength meter, the satellite dish can be fine tuned for peak signal strength.
Whether you’re a professional satellite TV installer or an amateur working at home, having a quality analog or digital satellite meter / satellite finder is essential.

| Additional Information |

The BIRGDOG satellite signal locator communicates with the satellites digital transmissions with "Unique Satellite Information Data" (USID). While most pointing devices only give you a general idea that there are indeed satellites in the sky and allow you to peak the signal, the BIRDOG takes you one step further by positively identifying the satellite.
The BIRDOG finds and identifies satellites with Digital Data Stream identifier (DDSI). Easily identify all 2 way Broadband Satellites like Directway and Starband. You select satellite from the menu, move your dish until the BIRDOG says "Found". Indicates raw signal level and digital data error rates at the same time for best dish alignment and cross polarity adjustment. Comes with Computer cord, AC charger, auto charger and carry case. Internal battery powers the LNB.
