IMPERIAL Telestar SATPLUS MINI Satellite Finder with LCD Display and Compass 5401202

Aligning a satellite dish on a rooftop or caravan can be a frustrating trial-and-error process, but the IMPERIAL Telestar SATPLUS MINI turns it into a quick, precise task. This compact satellite finder is built for installers, RV owners, and home users who need to lock onto a signal without guesswork. Connect it between your LNB and receiver, and the bright LCD with backlight shows signal strength at a glance, while the audible buzzer lets you keep your eyes on the dish. A built-in compass helps you determine the correct azimuth before fine-tuning.

Why choose it

The SATPLUS MINI is a self-contained tool that requires no batteries or external power—just the voltage from your satellite receiver. The backlit LCD is readable even in bright sunlight, and the combination of visual and acoustic feedback speeds up alignment. Its compact size fits easily in a tool bag, and the rotary knob allows precise sensitivity adjustment to avoid signal overload from strong transponders.

Ideal use cases

• Professional satellite installers aligning dishes on site
• Caravan and motorhome owners setting up portable satellite systems
• Home users adjusting a fixed dish after storms or relocation
• Technicians troubleshooting signal loss in existing installations

Good to know

The device is inserted in line between the LNB and the receiver; it passes through the DC voltage and 22 kHz control signals. Short circuit protection safeguards both the finder and the receiver. The compass assists with initial azimuth orientation, but final alignment should be done using the signal meter.
