Hi,

my brother recently got a Manhattan DSM-4S satellite finder. He gave it a try for re-tuning in a relative's dish that was blown askew by the wind and noticed that while it does help find the correct satellite quickly, there doesn't seem to be a way to use it to fine tune the satellite, like you can with many cheap finders (by increasing attenuation via a dial, for example).

I was wondering if anyone else has one of these sat finders and if they have a) experienced this and b) if there is a solution, apart from adding an attenuator onto the cable?
