Astra 2 at 28.2 is the correct sat for UK freesat channels. As for the sat meter check ebay but any meter with an anolgue display and an audible signal will do (the audible signal is ideal as you don't need to look at the meter whilst balanced on top of a ladder. You shouldn't be paying more than a tenner for a meter, patch cable and delivery from ebay. I have a KONIG myself but that was because it was the cheapest at the time.

Just remember to have the meter at the dish end as then you can see or here the signal strength as you move the dish.
