Be "sure of your bird" with the positive ID feature or use the automatic scan to identify the unknown satellite. Tired of loading new satellite plans? Super Buddy's geo-sensitive field guide shows you just the birds visible to your install - ALL of them, and their individual transponders.
In addition to positively identifying the satellite, displayed measurements include signal level (dBm), quality (IRD or C/N), voltage supplied by the receiver, current drawn by LNB, and L.O. frequency drift of the LNB. Super Buddy is compatible with single and multi-LNB configurations. Navigate easily from bird to bird with left/right arrows and through the individual transponders with up/down arrows. It's the BEST and the FASTEST!
Don't know the angles for your antenna? The zip-code lookup gives you elevation and azimuth for whichever satellite you select.
Satellite delivery is becoming more complex, but the SUPER BUDDY makes it easier! Handle the toughest jobs better, faster and cheaper.

What Our Customers are saying:
Ordering my FTA receiver was easy and it arrived on my doorstep in only 4 days. I like the fact that I now own the receiver and have no more monthly cable bills. It was getting so high, now I’m saving $95 a month! Thanks Gosatellite
