A versatile signal meter for everyday use with a built-in dish positioning calculator … and more. With the arrival of the new Labgear catalogue comes a number of new products but the one that stands because it marks a new direction for Labgear is the S201 Satellite Signal Meter. The S201 is a hand sized digital satellite meter, compatible with DVB-S and S2 which can measure both signal level and quality and provides both a visual reading and audible tone to help you accurately align an LNB onto a satellite dish. It’s rechargeable and comes with a protective silicone sleeve and neck strap. The meter comes pre-loaded with 100 satellites and for each one a choice of transponders to tune into and to support this automatic 13/18V switching and 22kHz tone. But to get even more out of this meter take note of the “Before you start” instruction in the accompanying manual and enter your grid reference. It’s easy, Labgear even give you a website to find out what it is. Once you have done this you have now enabled the position calculator function in the meter. With this you can do the basic set-up for any of the listed satellites from about a 30 mile radius of your location accurately before trying to fine tune the LNB – BRILLIANT! Finally, just to make life even easier the S201 has a built in magnetic compass and a neat LED torch light. The price? Well check with you Labgear stockist but as you would expect it is unbeatable value for a quality branded meter. Labgear S201 Satellite Meter plus First product news of 2018 was a general supply story. London based distributor Eurosat launched their own, new, full product trade website.
