An extra £10 will get you a cheap little sat finder meter, they have a dial and tone with the dail/tone raising as the signal gets stronger...they're invaluable and every sat installer has one and will use one when replacing the dish or LNB.. You can though do it by hand and one way I used to do it is with a friend both either shouting at each other the picture quality/signal strength or if too distant for shouting then a cheap set of walkie/talkies are great
