I got one of those free from wizards with my dish. I found the meter to be more of a hinderance as it was easier asking the wife to stand by tv and shout if she saw any picture.

same here m8, thats were i got my 3 from. they are ok for lineing a fixed dish on strong sats, 28.2/19.2/13 but other than that there not much good. i find if you have a channel already tuned in you can find any sat with alot of pateince.

I prefer to use the SATELLITE BEEPER, and listen for the strongest signal through the ear piece.I tape up my Beepers well and leave them in situ(maybe I`m losing power or signal this way but it certainly not noticable) Get the beeper for a tenner.

spot on m8, i have a wolsey mk3 and a horizon mini-sat. i use the horizon for fixed set-ups and the wolsey if im doing a motorised or multi-lnb.
