| The Channel Master analog signal meters are designed
to speed up the process of satellite alignment by providing an
analog or visual display of satellite signals as well as
providing an audio tone to determine actual signal. There is also a
gain reference knob for increasing or decreasing meter deflection.
Once a satellite is established, it is an easy process to listen for
maximum or highest tone pitch or meter deflection and adjust your
dish as needed. This process establishes pin point accuracy
when trying to get those weaker signals. You can select the
1008IFD meter that will tune 2 separate satellites simultaneously,
and also provide built in power source so that a receiver is not
necessary for antenna setup. The single version is the 1007IFD with
same battery pack equipped. The Channel Master signal meters are
listed below. |

| 1004iFD Satellite IF amp and
broadband detector; derives meter and variable frequency audio tone. Dish aligned for
maximum meter deflection or highest pitch tone. Gain control allows range of input signal
levels, measurements of voltage on cable and LNBF current. The signal meter output
must be connected to the satellite receiver in order to supply power. The unit reads
the switching voltage of 13/18 VDC respectively on the coaxial cable. Easy to carry,
less than 6" long with shoulder strap. Great satellite meters for climbing in
hard to reach places, and weighs slightly more than pound. Channel Master Specs |

| Tune 2 Satellites at
Once - Quick Alignments |
| The 1008IFD includes two meters in one
housing, allowing easy alignment of dual satellite single dish installations. Use unit at
dish without having to hookup receiver (substitutes receiver power) which makes head end
adjustments very accurate. When peaking, the dish, signal level can be viewed for both
LNB's simultaneously, (duo or trimode setups) making alignment quick and easy. Carrying
case included w/rechargeable internal battery |

| Dual Mode Quick Instructions: Use
the lnb hookups as shown as well as the connections to receivers and unit will tune each
satellite independently. Also can be connected without hooking up receivers for B+
power since it has self contained internal battery. At that point all you have to do is
get your offset, elevation, and azimuth and adjust each level to maximum without losing
signal on other meter. |
