What is the best FTA satellite finder?

During the first part of December I had a repair in Montana that several FTA installers could not repair.  It was hard to understand but it happens. When I arrived to my destination 2 ½ hours later I started on the job right away.  When no one can figure it out, I generally get called out to fix the problems.  (It reminds me of on pure guy worked 3 days and could not align the customers dish, I when over and in less than 10 minutes we had signal.) For repairs it’s a matter of always starting from the TV set and working your way back, so I did.  I pulled out my Trimax SM-3500 and plugged in my meter to the line coming for the satellite dish.  I had already inspected the LNB’s frequency and so I set up my meter to G-19 and selected the lnb frequency.  My meter detected NO SIGNAL so, off I went directly to the ground block.  The ground block relieved that the gardener had wiped out the connection and had stuck the cable back into the fitting.  I cut out all the damaged cable and spliced the RG-6, put in a fresh ground block and plugged in my Trimax SM3500 meter.  Bingo, signal was back.  I exited out of my scan mode to the video monitoring to view the quality of the picture.  I love this feature because while viewing the picture quality I can hit the F2 key and simultaneously monitor signal and quality plus C/N levels.  I did notice that the quality was down a bit.  So, to the dish to re-align the signal quality I went.  I plugged in the Trimax SM-3500 to the LNB and in minutes I had C/N up to 11.5, 96 dbmv’s and 68% quality.  It was a very cloudy day with snow in the forecast, so I was satisfied with the levels the 3abn dish could get.  I really enjoy my Trimax sm -3500 meter.  It has made my job easier and always a profitable venture. A man is only as good as his knowledge the good Lord provides and works for and his equipment, wouldn’t you say?
