    Applied Instruments XR-3

    My SuperDish Mod to multi-LNB FTA Dish

    My SuperDish Mod to multi-LNB FTA Dish

    sperry85 & ZandarKoad, The Super Buddy and AI Turbo S2 satellite meters are most certainly compatible with band-stacked systems (as long as the frequencies in the stacked system are within the tuning frequency range of the meters and most on the market are) and that's why we have the LNB...

    Applied Instruments Introduces new AI Turbo S2 Meter!

    Babadem, The 4 kHz tuning resolution is an increase in performance over the 1 MHz tuning resolution. Being able to tune to 12001.528 MHz instead of to 12002 MHz can be nice if you're tuning to a narrow carrier whose true center frequency is right in between, for example 12001 MHz & 12002 MHz...

    Sattlite Finder

    Satellite Finder/ Signal Level Meter As the others mentioned, your intended use should really dictate your choice of sat finder / signal level meter. If this is a one time install, I wouldn't recommend spending a lot of money. However, if you are planning on being an installer long-term, I...
