Satfinder (Dish Pointer)

While dish setup, don’t rely on a compass, its accuracy is limited.☝ This satellite finder app, however, provides you with a high-precision instrument to create a landmark and avoid a compass and calculation of magnetic azimuth.

The app does NOT require a camera, motion sensors or a digital compass to help you with satellite antenna set up.

WHAT ELSE YOU GET? A whole bunch of other useful features:

- 2 modes: GPS-OFF (take advantage of satellite maps to off-site express check intended location for possible satellite signal blocks before you actually setup the dish) and GPS-ON (aligning the dish);

- 2 types of target: Satellite (choose a certain satellite from a list) and Direction (set specific direction, which is good for aligning point-to-point wireless communication antennas);

- 4 map types;

- Easy to use search by either a satellite's own name or satellite provider's name;

- Access to a public transponder list;

- Magnetic azimuth display for hard-core compass fans!)

- Last but not least: we don’t run super-annoying huge ads in your face - good for nervous system and usability, friends!

HOW TO USE THE APP IN GPS-OFF MODE to express check any point on planet Earth for satellite signal blocks:

1) Turn off GPS in the menu;

2) Choose a satellite or set direction;

3) Find intended location of dish setup and fix it with a long tap → Direction indicator and alignment parameters will show up, now you can have a look at the map and decide if that location is adequate or it's better to find another one.

Now you are ready for the main part, let’s roll!

HOW TO USE THE APP TO ALIGN YOUR DISH (easy, really):

1. Make sure that the internet and GPS are enabled on your phone; bear in mind that for best accuracy you should be outdoor, or at least come close to a window;

2. In the menu go to «Target» and choose a satellite/set direction → You will see your location and direction indicator on the map, and your coordinates, GPS status along with alignment parameters in the info panel at the top of your display;

3. Wait for max accuracy of GPS (it may take some time to determine your location). Accuracy depends on surroundings, good range is <5m/15ft;

4. Bring your phone to the dish as close as possible, no matter above or under it (you can stand right under the dish if it's fixed on a wall, just don’t step away);

5. Look at the map, if direction indicator runs across a landmark that is easy to spot from the dish location (a house, a lake, a big tree etc.) you can point the dish at the landmark, set elevation according to its value in the info panel and then proceed to fine-tuning the dish using a satellite receiver settings.

If satellite images are of poor quality or there are no landmarks in sight, do the following trick:

6. Fix the dish location with a long tap on the display or select the respective option in the menu → Coordinates will be saved and direction indicator will now be coming from the fixed location, not your actual one;

7. Following the direction indicator step about 100-300m (300-1000 ft) away from the dish, the farther you move away the better → You will see the azimuth for aligning your dish (“ Azimuth”) and azimuth calculated for your current location (“Current Azimut”), make sure the two values match as closely as possible;

8. At the point of closest azimuth match, place a landmark. For instance, it can be a stick/twig forced in the ground or a chair if you bring it, or even a person who is willing to stay still for a while;

9. Go back to your satellite dish, point it at the new landmark and set elevation;

10. Proceed to fine-tuning the dish using satellite receiver settings.

There now, your satellite dish is well aligned! Directv, dish network, all sorts of dish tv and internet are there - enjoy! 😁

虽然盘的设置，不依赖于一罗盘，其精度是limited.☝此卫星取景器的应用程序，但是，提供了一个高精度的仪器来创建一个里程碑，避免磁方位的罗盘和计算。

该应用程序不需要照相机，运动传感器或数字罗盘，以帮助您设置卫星天线。的

什么ELSE你呢？一大堆其他有用的功能：

- 2种模式：GPS-OFF（利用卫星地图为可能的卫星信号块场外快速检查预期位置你之前实际设置的皿）和GPS-ON（对准皿）;

- 第2种类型的目标：卫星（从列表中选择一个特定的卫星）和方向（设置特定的方向，这是很好的用于对准的点至点的无线通信天线）;

- 4种地图类型;

- 容易被任何卫星的自己的名字或卫星提供商的名称使用搜索;

- 获得了公众转发列表;

- 磁方位角显示器铁杆粉丝罗盘）！

- 我们的爱和关怀☺We支持你并回答你所有的问题，只需按菜单中的“与开发者联系”按钮向我们发送反馈或artemkaxboy@gmail.com发送电子邮件;！

- 最后但并非最不重要的：我们不运行在你的脸超烦人的巨大广告 - 良好的神经系统和可用性，朋友们！

如何使用该应用在GPS-OFF MODE 将表达检查地球上的任何点，卫星信号块：

1）关闭GPS在菜单;

2）选择一卫星或设置方向;

3）找到盘设置的预定位置，并用长按→方向指示器和对齐参数修复它会显示出来，现在你可以看一下地图，并决定是否该位置是足够的，或者是更好地另找一个。

现在，你已经准备好为主要部分，让我们滚！

如何使用该应用来对准你的菜（易，确实）：

1.确保互联网和GPS在手机上启用;记住，最佳精度应该是户外，或至少接近的窗口;

2.在菜单中去«目标»，并选择卫星/套方向→你会看到你的位置和地图上的方向指示器，和你的坐标，GPS状态，在信息面板对齐参数一起在显示器的顶部;

3.等待GPS的最大精度（这可能需要一些时间来确定您的位置）。精度取决于周围的环境，良好的范围是<5米/15英尺;

4.把你的电话的菜尽量靠近，不管之上或之下它（你可以站在右边盘下，如果它固定在墙上，只是不一步之遥）;

5.看地图，如果方向指示器跨越具有里程碑意义的，很容易从盘位置（房子，湖，树大等），你可以在具有里程碑意义的点的菜，根据设定的海拔发现其运行在信息面板值，然后进行微调使用卫星接收机设置的菜。

如果卫星图像质量差或有看不到的地标中，执行下面的技巧：

6.与显示器上一个长抽头修正盘位置或选择菜单→坐标对应的选项将被保存，方向指示器现在将从固定位置的到来，而不是实际的一个;

7.在约100-300m（300-1000英尺），方向指示器步从盘远，越远你搬走好→您将看到方位对准你的菜（“方位”）和方位角为当前计算位置（“当前的Azimut”），确保这两个值紧密地匹配成为可能;

8.在最接近的方位匹配的点，将具有里程碑意义。例如，它可以是一个棒/树枝在地上或椅子强迫，如果你带上它，甚至一个人谁愿意停在原地一会儿;

9.回到你的星盘，在新的里程碑，并设置高程点它;

10.继续进行微调利用卫星接收机设置的菜。

还有现在，您的卫星天线以及对齐！ DIRECTV，DISH网络，菜电视和网络的各种在那里 - 享受！ 😁
