Review on 🛰️ ICQUANZX V8 Satellite Finder Signal Meter - Upgraded DVB-S2/S2X Receiver Sat Detector with HD 1080P, Free to Air FTA - 3.5" LCD & 3000mAh Battery by Michael Persing

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Does not have updated satellite information.

Satellite SES-3 is missing from the list of satellites. Instead, it is at 103 degrees West and has Spaceway-1. SES-3 is currently at this location and has been since 2012. Spaceway-1 was originally at 102.8 degrees West. It was decommissioned in February 2020 and placed in high orbit. I went to the freesat.cn website and finally found an updated firmware (V-160 Feb 2020) updated from a USB stick. It still showed the Spaceway-1 satellite and the SES-3 satellite was not shown. There is no US region in the menu to install. (Federal regulations?) Date and time blocked. Made in China so instructions are not very good. It works, but not in the way you think.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Quality
