[albaniansniper]

Just purchased one SATlink WS-6909 from ... will tell you later up in request (cheapest that I can fine online) but would like to know if anyone has had one and how good or bad it is?


If it is very bad then I will be more then happy to take the pain.

Thank you for that 'mdt' I feel much better now.
Regarding 'problems in bright sunlight'? Well,I just have to apply some protective Sun Cream and job done.

I made this sun visor up for a ws-6906,because as MDT says you cant see the screen in sunlight no laughing at it as it works a treat,I"v had the meter over a year now and its great for personal installs.

Many thanks for that. I'll report back when I get it to work.
Kind regards.

Finally item arrived from China! Looking good so far but one thing is missing? The_ USB CABLE?

Does anyone know what type of usb cable do I need to connect this satfinder with my pc?
Many thanks.

I did get one with my 6906 its usb to rs232 but to be honest I"v never used it as you can update TPs/add channels etc manually without any bother.

Apparently I have that cable somewhere but my desktop pc only have one output connection which is for the monitor.
Also instead of a usb to rs232 can a USB Male to A Male Cable do the same job?

I dont know but dont think so others will know more than me.older desk top pcs usually have an rs232 port.which is not the same a monitor connector.
