Satellite Signal Meter, Best under $200?

[sddtvtech]

Also if money were no object I would probably go with the yellow Birddog as it seems to be meter of choice around here by installers who do it for a living.

Probably bc it doesnt require training to use a birddog but a general use of it.

satbuddy or superbuddy require training.

its like how Directv will contract a deal with GM for vans bc its cheaper when bulk buy instead of the FORD co who never filed bankruptcy.


I dunno but Birddog was around before those other products came on the market so they keep buying them.

AIM will probably take over in the next course of i say 10 years?

I have used the aim meter which that is the only meter I've ever used so far.

AIM Meter is the only meter you should be using for Directv well worth the cost

You are correct on that. I have so many service calls every week, that I have to re tune dish. You can tell when something besides a AIM meter was used. I feel if you are going to contract to install Direct. It should be mandatory to use a AIM meter. Might save a bunch of service calls.

there are many options on fleabay for used meters,if you´re lucky enough you might get a birdog or even a super buddy,which is from my point of view, the best for the job.I have used them both.
