• RF level can be displayed in dBuV (accurate to +-1dB) or linear scale (256 steps). Feature available in set up mode



• C/N (carrier noise) is displayed in dB.



• Quality (Pre B.E.R or bit error rate) is locking on faster making it easier to lock on to the satellite initially typical lock in less than 100 mS.



• Instead of “found” to indicate lock of correct satellites actual B.E.R can be displayed. Feature available in set up mode.



• The quality (Pre B.E.R) bar graph can be logarithmic rather than liner. Making it easier to peak the dish and helps with weak satellites. Feature available in set-up mode.
