Remember that even with a sat meter you might end up on the wrong sat.. Once you find a sat all you have to do is go left and right (though the dish might need raising a fraction when you get to due south and lowering a fraction (talking about only a max of 5 degrees between 30E and S due to the rounding of the earth) as you track the sats across the sky.) If you find a sat and tune it in use Lyngsat.com to find out which sat it is by matching up a channel/freq, if you're for example on 13E then you need to go about 3-4 strong signals to the left to find 28.2E..

Best of luck with it..
