Home Entertainment tool for accurate satellite dish alignment using clear visual and audible signal cues. Faster setups help hobbyists and DIY installers avoid frustrating trial-and-error. Is the CSL-Computer Satellite Finder the practical choice for quick, reliable alignment?

⚡ At a Glance
  • Signal Sensitivity: Very high sensitivity with pointer display, level scale and acoustic feedback
  • Best for: DIY installers and hobbyists needing quick, accurate dish alignment
  • Not ideal for: Users who require automated motorised antenna alignment or app-based control

Analogue/digital sat-finder with pointer display, LED lighting and acoustic signal. Connects via F-connectors and supports 950–2150 MHz with DC 13–18 V operation.


Quicker dish alignment – with pointer display and acoustic signal

Pointer display and level scale provide an immediate visual peak while signal sound changes with strength; an LED display and background lighting keep readings visible. Connection through F-sockets passes receiver voltage for live signal measurement.

Alignment completes in minutes, cutting time on ladders and rooftops. Audible feedback allows one-person adjustments without constant glances at the meter.

Stable polarisation locking – with polarisation indicator and sensitivity rotation controller

Polarisation indicator and a sensitivity rotation controller help fine-tune LNB orientation and signal gain during rotation. The pointer offers precise micro-adjustments for locking onto the best polarisation.

More reliable signal locking reduces return visits for re-alignment. Improved polarisation control delivers steadier reception once locked.

Broad compatibility for standard satellites – with 950–2150 MHz support and dual F-connectors

Frequency range of 950–2150 MHz covers common LNB output bands, while input and output F-connectors allow in-line switching between the receiver and the finder. Operating voltage runs on DC 13–18 V from the receiver.

Works with most conventional LNBs and receivers for typical satellite setups. Pass-through connectors simplify testing without rewiring the whole installation.

✨ The 4 Key Reasons for CSL-Computer Satellite Finder
  1. Pointer display — Clear visual signal peaks for fast, accurate dish alignment
  2. Acoustic signal — Hands-free feedback lets one-person installs without guesswork during rooftop adjustments
  3. LED background lighting — Keeps meter readable in low light for evening installations
  4. Pass-through F-connectors — Allows in-line switching between LNB and receiver during setup
