You also need to be aware that it depends on what group of sats you're trying to find.. Also I've noticed that sat finders react differently dependant on the polarity of the LNB as you're measuring a combined output and the transponders on lets say V might have a weaker signal than those on H. Also be aware that for example Astra 2 isn't just one sat but a group of sats all manoeuvring inside of a box shaped area in space, if you get the edge of one sat it doesn't mean to say that you'll get all the sats..
