Description  I was working as a satellite technician and decided it wasn't for me. I bought a Birdog meter to help me out on the field and save me time but I will no longer need it. I peaked maybe 10 or 15 dishes with it, it works great and does as it's advertised to. I'm sure if you're shopping for a Birdog you're well aware of what it's capable of, but I will copy some of the text from another ad: BIRDOG USB PLUS This is the newest Version, "Birdog USB Plus" It has Easy-to-Read Display with Digital Enhansced Graphics, Twice the Satellite memory Positions, One-Touch Button Easy to Use, More Battery Life, Spanish Language Display Option, Recalls Last Satellite Position upon power-up, Digital Data Stream Identification and more. New Features of the BIRDOG USB PLUS Spectrum Analyzer - Clear and easy to use. Data Log - Upload your installation readings to your PC. Custom Carrier - you can build your own file by entering the parameters needed for a "lock", specifically the frequency, symbol rate, FEC, etc. QPSK Constellation Diagram - Detailed diagnosis of digital satellite signals. LNB / Cable Test - Measure for open or short circuits in LNB & Cable Dual display for DTV 101/119 - See two satellites at one time, also works with SWM. DTV SWM Histogram Function - Up to 9 simultaneous Carrier / frequency measurements. Spectrum Display The Spectrum information bar at the top of this screen will alternate between the current frequency and span in use. Constellation Display This Illustration shows how a typical QPSK constellation diagram would be represented. Custom Carrier Custom carrer mode is a new feature which enables you to specify your own carrer to lock on to. This can be very useful for optimizing a specific sevice once the satellite has been located - and this feature can be used for VSAT installation too. You can also store this selction separately form your predefined selections. You can set the desired frequency, the Symbol Rate, the FEC, the LNB Votlage and the IQ un-swapped (Norm) or Swap. You can also save your custom carrier to memory "save and exit"   This package includes: 1 Birdog Satellite Meter 1 Leather Carying Case / Protective Case 1 USB Interface Cord 1 A/C Charger Cord 1 D.C.
