What signal meter will work?

I switched from Direct to Dish. Now I have the new hopper with 2 Joeys. I have a spare dish like the one on the house. I set it up one time while camping and it took some time to get it working. I have read that the built in signal meter is very slow to acknowledge a signal. What meter will work to show me when I am locked 61.5 and 72.7?

    When I screwed with Dish I think I remember that the stand along receiver will tell you what Sat. its on. I wasn't happy at all with dish in the MH.

    The SAT LOOK LITE from Solid Signal will not work. Even though their ad leads you to believe it will. And they are a terrible company to deal with for a return. A $12 buzz meter will do the same for the Dish EA sats.
