Brief introduction:

This type of digital satellite finder is a simple and convenient instrument to install
and adjust satellite dish. As digital satellite finder, it is necessary to input correspon­ding satellite parameters, such as LO frequency of LNB, Down Frequency, symbol
rate, etc.

It can be used as an indicator to adjust satellite dish, feedhorn position and polari­zing angle so that help the best dish installation.
