poking around I see discontinued meters, high end meters,
thinking of getting one for Dish 110,119,129,

any advise on which is reasonably easy to figure out/use and good?

Will use on a 1000.2 dish WA and dish 500WA (110,119)

SuperBuddy, Especially if working with Hybrid LNBFs.

Seems to be discontinued, wary of buying used,

Applied has replaced it with another that uses modules, by the looks of it.

Ideas?

I bought a used SuperBuddy 29 and had to have the battery replaced and a new faceplate. Still a lot cheaper that the $950 of the new version.

Same here , I paid $250 for a used Superbuddy 29 that came with brand new Battery and at the time the latest software update.

About a month ago, I bought the data cable, and updated the software again.

Works fantastic.
