Sathawk 3000 Version 4.2

I had a chance to test this version on some lnb's and I thought I would share my finding.

I tested the meter on 148 DP and Legacy
110 Legacy
119 Legacy
97 Universal

Found:

- 148 on DP lnb's Does not work, Problem still same as version 4.1 (no found)
But, Pointing to 148 you get locked on 129, 110 DP1, 110, 119, 82, 91, 61.5KR
- 148 on Legacy still Ok as before.

- 110 Legacy You get locked also on 148, 61.5L, 82, 91, 129
- 119 Legacy Is fixed. you can get found on it now.

- 97 Universal LNB KH no found, still same problem.
- 97 Universal KV is ok as before.

I can understand the problem of getting a lock on satellite you're not pointing at, but pointing to a satellite and not being able to get lock on it is a problem still needs to be fixed. I appreciate that Sadoun is trying to fix this and hope to get 148 on DP and 97 on Universal fixed too.

BTW. I used the Satpicker and loaded only the sat's I need. It's very helpful.

Thank you

Thanks Pictureon for your good feedback.

I will look into the 148 DP and 97 [u]KH.

For the Echo satellites, it is important that you point the dish in the correct Azimuth direction and use that as a reference to identify the satellite with the meter.

We did some adjustments on the satellites you mentioned. Download ver A4.2 again and reload it into your SatHawk again. Let me know if you need anything else.

Thank you,
148 DP works fine now
97 [u]KH still not.
Also 97 KH on standard does not work with this version
