Thank you for choosing our newest and most innovative satellite identification and alignment meter. This device
far exceeds the capability of any alignment tools we have offered to date.
While most pointing devices only give you a general idea that there are indeed satellites in the sky, the BirDog
takes you one step further by positively identifying some satellites. This meter was specifically designed and
intended to assist in simplifying the DirecWay alignment procedure; however, a secondary advantage lies in it’s
ability to identify some other satellites as well.
The BirDog satellite menu can be reprogrammed to include only the satellites you are interested in or to search
for satellites which are not found in the default menu. The procedure for making the modification is discussed in
this document.
Please note that this manual was current at the time of publication, however, the latest news and updates are
available from www.perfect-10.tv/meter.
