The Freesat / GtMedia V8 Finder (V71HD) is the old finder, already known.
The GTMedia V8 Meter is another piece of equipment, probably coming out of the launch tests soon, I think.
I'm also waiting to know.

We expect the new hardware in the same box, with new software, to actually have power level indicators and full-size quality than the classic V-71HD. And that has the indication of BER and S / N.

There is a new Finder-Meter unit, I am testing one for Freesat. Software is listed on this site for it.
The menus in the new Finder-Meter are not like the older one that was based on the V7HD.

In time, the screen with the first firmware was this for signal analysis.
[img]hxxp://i64.tinypic.com/2rh7hxw.jpg[/img]
Could it be that in the new firmware, besides indicators in larger size compared to the Finder V71-HD model, was Team able to include Power (dbuv) and S / N (db) indicators?
Have a nice day Owen!
