Birdog Perfect Vision for setting up 1000.2

[chapin4life]

Hi guys I struggled 2 days to get 129w on a 1000.2 and was only able to get 110 and 119 setup
do you guys think its worth getting a Birdog, someone is offering me one for $100 used.

Double check your Skew and elevation. Also make sure your mount is level. Peak the 119 and the other two usually fall in line. If it's just one time set up I'd have a hard time justifying $100 for a meter

On the check switch, in what order are your sats? It should be 119 110 129.

It's 119 110 129 I think a tree might be blocking it, since I have good signal in 119 and 110

On your nexus see if you can use either the DISH pointer pro or the satfinder Lite apps off of your tablet to verify LOS. Idk how well they work with a front facing camera but its worth a look

There are 1000's of worse ways to spend $100 with nothing to show for. If it will help you, get it, use it & then resell it.
