The meter easily demonstrates how to enter a frequency on this video. I agree that it will not lock to anything other than DVB-S and DVB-S2, however it’s not sold as anything else, it is not a full Spectrum Analyzer and hence reflected in the price! Regarding your satellites, this only suggests you are not downloading the correct files from our Free of Charge website, which is updated daily if you do not wish to input the parameters yourself.
The Birdog is a generic version of the Horizon range. Slight changes in hardware are made due to the different transmission formats arond the Globe

Why does this meter look almost exactly like a Birdog? Is it the same thing, sold under a different brand? Thanks in advance.

Refresh rate on spectrum far too slow.
it is not possible to input a frequency and simply pan the sky for the spectrum.
Without the particular settings for a transponder Ie. freq ,S/R,Fec it is not possible to get a lock on the transponder.
If the transponder is not Dvb no lock will be found.
It is not possible to obtain a lock on satellites,Hellassat,eutelsat W3a with the frequencies and the correct dish size.
I have wasted my cash.
