I'm looking for info on what type of meter to purchase. *I'm looking for one if it exists that will tell me what bird I'm pointing at as well as the strength. *My problem is I can tune the strength, but I might be on the wrong bird.

Use dishpointer.com to get the info then aim where it tells you then tune your signal using your sat box.
Use the free tools you have is my opinion but a satfinder is more accurate.

I agree free is better, I'll try that.

I would have to agree with Aunbis, use the receiver you will be watching TV with to aim your dish. Not all tuners are created equal, I have seen 1 receiver work great but hook up another receiver with a weaker tuner and you get the NO SIGNAL across the screen....JMO.
