Super Buddy™
Satellite Meter
e “sure of your bird” with the
positive ID feature or use the
automatic scan to identify the
unknown satellite.
Tired of loading new satellite
plans? Super Buddy’s geo-sensitive
“Field Guide” shows you just the
birds visible to your install —
ALL of them, and their individual
transponders.
Navigate easily from bird to bird
with left/right arrows and through
individual transponders with up/
down arrows. It’s the BEST and
the EASIEST!
Don’t know the angles for your
antenna? The zip code look-up
gives you elevation and azimuth
for whichever satellite you select.
Multi-switch control? DiSEqC?
“They’re in there.”
Durability? “The best.”
Voltage/current measurements?
“Of course.”
HughesNet cross-pol? “That too.”
Signal compatibility?
“DSS, DVB-S, Digicipher 2 and
Dish 8PSK. Wow!”
Satellite delivery is becoming
more complex, but the Super
Buddy makes it easier! Handle
the toughest jobs better, faster
and cheaper with Super Buddy.
