This is a simple but effective tool for setting up television reception. For terrestial reception, simply put in a battery and connect the cable, and rotate aerial for optimum signal. For satellite, connect inline between LNB and receiver, no battery required for satellite, as it uses the current which flows from the receiver to the LNB. Set the angle of the dish to appropiate value and move dish from side to side for optimum signal, then fine tune.

First impressions are that this is a well made device. I used it to align a TV aerial. The 12 indicator LEDs give good sensitivity, and will align the aerial to within a few degrees. Besides the LEDs there is an audible indication of signal strength, which is a great help in most real world installations, such as in a loft or up a ladder. And as a plus the device is made in the UK.

I've ben a TV aerial engineer for about 40 years, on and off - and this economical little unit is really useful. It fits in a pocket, and gives a clear multi-led bargraph of TV signal strength, so is ideal for setting aerial direction accurately on the rooftops.
It's also useful for checking signal strengths in house distribution systems, and diagnosing faults.
There are about 15 or so LED's in the bargraph, which gives a superior accuracy to the more usual 5-led designs.
It also displays satellite signal strengths (although not very well on the internal battery, you need to connect a live sat receiver to the Output terminal to provide 15 volts or so to get a fullscale reading.)
I prefer an analogue needle meter for sat dish alignment, as it's more accurate, but this could be used OK if your normal meter failed, or got left behind.
Altogether, the best low-cost meter I've used.
