Save Recall i a Measurements results can be stored in an onboard memory E Viewing TV channel satellite name position in the NIT of the transponder that is under the cursor Sometimes it works sometimes not That s because not every transponder NIT contains proper information Other meters offer another method They recognize a satel lite based on the possibility to lock to a chosen trans ponder Such meter keeps in its memory tuning param eters of one transponder per every satellite Such trans ponder parameters need to be unique so that only when the antenna is aimed at the right satellite the meter can lock to the signal Do we have something like that also in SPAROS 609 Even more SPAROS checks not one but four transpond ers per satellite You can see the status of all four trans ponders at the same time their signal level and quality bars and percentages Ten most popular European satel lites are pre programmed by SPAUN We can add another ten if we like To do this we just have to install and use the included PC software In the same way we can edit ee ooa ee e a eta the existing satellites in case there are changes in transponder parameters After activating the Check sat mode the last used sat ellite is shown with its four transponders If you do not have the lock just press left right button to change the satellite After seconds you will find the satellite tha
