Checking the satellite signal strength
The Signal Meter allows you to check the strength of the signal from the satellite to
your satellite dish. This is useful while setting up your satellite dish, and while
troubleshooting any reception problems you may encounter. Satellite signal strength
can be affected by how accurately you have pointed the satellite dish, and by any
obstructions between the satellite and the satellite dish (tree limbs, for example).
