Yes, I think for that meter you can monitor the level for a particular transponder.

Ok update time, received everything to day came home at 7 and got dish mounted on motor etc set it up but one slight problem. It states that my dish bracket angle should be 22.4. There are two sets of lines represnenting the angles on the dish and they aren't the same. One side starts of higher than the other ????

Any help plz

Fixed it on hotbird for the meantime and have to say the darkbox is a lovely piece of kit

I think it's the right hand side scale you want (from behind dish), if it's the Orbital.

If that doesn't work, ignore it and just set it for best signal.
