Hi guys, i want to buy Satlink 6980 HD but i can't find if can i move channels on the basic "ALL" list. E.g from number 0260 to number 0001. The manual don't write anything about that. Videos on youtube don't show this option. Anyone knows if this option exist? Not do this on a computer, but only from the satfinder.

Thank you.

Hi my friend, i have not have buy this satfinder.
I'm interesting buy that, i have contact before two weeks to Satlink UK because i have some questions about this satfinder, but they never answer to my email.

Can you help me to my questions, please? Or anyone to know the answers.
Thank you.


1) In the basic channel list "ALL" can we move a channel e.g. from number 0250 to 0001, or this satfinder don't have "MOVE" channel option?

2) Can i take screenshots of the menus and my receptions?

3) We press "OK" to see channel list. To change 10 channels with one click, we press the left or right arrow?

4) I have see that satfinder have a option YUV OUT. This is YUV component out Red, Green, Blue? Or this is for the signals from HDMI?

5) I have see two different photos on the internet. One have white numbered buttons, and the other have grey numbered buttons. What is the difference?

Latest update... i have buy Satlink WS 6980 HD, i have use it, and i have sell it!
Satfinder have bugs that i don't like and i can't use it. The major problem is that the quality signal not stays "solid" but is always up and down almost 1 db!

Your not going to get a good meter unless you spend some serious money. The Satlink range are ok for the hobbyist but if your using it day to day you need a good quality meter.

I'm still using my Rover DM16C, which cost me well over £500 second hand over 5 years ago. Its getting a bit old now but it still does the job well. For quick alignments i use a First Strike FS1.

400 euro for a satmeter is not cheap. I have buy this for my hobby. I use Satlink 6906 and is perfect for me, BUT, is DVB-S not DVB-S2 / HD.
I don't want to spend 500~3000+ euro for a professional satmeter.

Trust me €400 for a sat meter is cheap.

If you look at the likes of the Televes H45 your looking at the best part of €2500 :D
