SATELLITE RECPTION<br />
Sonic<br />
Satellite<br />
Meter<br />
There are many <strong>satellite</strong><br />
meters available today but<br />
how many of them can tell<br />
you what <strong>satellite</strong> you are<br />
pointed to?<br />
Moslem Dayani from Iran<br />
thought about this and<br />
developed a small <strong>satellite</strong><br />
meter that can do just that.<br />
Anyone who ever set up a <strong>satellite</strong><br />
antenna is certainly familiar with this<br />
problem: is the dish really pointed to the<br />
right <strong>satellite</strong>? The display on the <strong>satellite</strong><br />
meter shows a signal but could it be a different<br />
<strong>satellite</strong> that the dish was pointed<br />
to? Moslem Dayani explains, “To solve this<br />
problem I built a <strong>satellite</strong> finder with which<br />
you can hear the audio from one of the <strong>satellite</strong><br />
channels.”<br />
Moslem Dayani simply modulated the<br />
audio output from the <strong>satellite</strong> receiver<br />
onto the coaxial cable from the LNB and<br />
with the proper alignment of the dish you<br />
will hear the audio from a previously set up<br />
channel in the receiver.<br />
“You will only hear the channel’s audio<br />
if you are aligned to the correct <strong>satellite</strong>”,<br />
comments Moslem Dayani, “The Sonic Satellite<br />
Finder has two adjustments, one for<br />
volume and the other to match the level<br />
of the LNB.” Some LNBs deliver only weak<br />
levels forcing an adjustment to the level<br />
so that the measurement unit has enough<br />
room to play with.<br />
Moslem Dayani sees himself as an inventor<br />
and is not interested in manufacturing<br />
and distributing the Sonic Satellite finder<br />
himself. Anyone who is interested in marketing<br />
this kind of product should contact<br />

Moslem Dayani developed<br />
the Sonic Satellite Finder<br />
and manufactured it as<br />
a prototype. Now he’s<br />
looking for a manufacturer<br />
to convert his idea into a<br />
market-worthy product.<br />
