Proper satellite installation and maintenance requires ensuring that your satellite dish is properly aligned. If a satellite dish is not pointing in the right direction (towards the right satellite in space), there will either be a very poor signal or no signal at all. Since it is impossible to visually locate the right satellite from Earth and precision entails more than simply pointing the dish in approximately the same direction as nearby dishes, the use of a signal meter is essential. Channel Master Signal Meters Among the numerous satellite signal meters available, Channel Master manufactures two of the most reliable. The 1007IFD and the 1008IFD are quite similar, aside from the fact that the latter is actually two meters in one. Both of them offer signal strength measurement via both meter and audible tone indication, as well as LNB voltage and current measurements. They also have built-in 22KHz switching ability. Thanks to their internal batteries, both of these Channel Master signal meters can be used to install a dish antenna prior to installing a satellite receiver. In addition, thanks to its dual internal meters, the Channel Master 1008IFD is an indispensable tool in the installation of elliptical dishes. When peaking, the signal level can be viewed for both LNBs simultaneously, whether duo or tri-mode setups--greatly simplifying the installation and alignment process.
