I have little doubt the new Directv in house meter will soon be best and probably required.
Most techs can tune the Directv dishes with a beer can and a string...........it is "seeing" all the other birds that makes the meter valuable. You do not want to put all your eggs in the Directv basket.
I am still not seeing enough money offered to cover the care and feeding of an expensive & fragile
meter.
Diversify!
