Back installing Satellite

[John Jones jr]

I installed DirecTv for 4 years (2004-2008). I used a Birdog meter which work great for me back then. Now I will be working for dish network mainly installing the 1000 dish. What is the most practical meter to use. ( it definitely needs to power JOB as well.)

Thanks again in advance

Awesome that is the one that kept coming up on my search. But the opinion of true Satellite Techs means a lot more. Thanks again

No problem, coming to Dish, you're going to probably have a lot of questions. The Installer Zone on this forum is a good place to ask them, or you can PM one of us.

It's a whole different ball game than DTV installs and there are a lot of Hopper installations issues right now
