Satlink WS-6906 – Digitaler Satellitenfinder mit LCD-Display

The Satlink WS-6906 is a versatile tool for satellite installation and setup. Its large color TFT display shows you the signal strength as a percentage and as a bar graph, and also provides detailed information about the signal quality (CBER/VBER) – so you can immediately see if your dish alignment is optimal.

Thanks to its wide frequency range of 950 to 2150 MHz, the device covers the common reception areas in the Ku-band. Integrated DiSEqC support (1.0/1.1/1.2) and USALS functionality allow for convenient control of motorized antennas or LNB switching directly on the device.

Another highlight: The WS-6906 already displays free-to-air (FTA) TV and radio stations – and an external monitor or television can be connected via AV-IN/AV-OUT. This makes positioning particularly easy outdoors or in RV/camping facilities.

Mobile use is ensured by the integrated lithium battery – typically several hours of operation, ideal for technicians on the go or for outdoor use without a direct power supply.

With its compact design (approx. 9.5 × 15.5 × 4.5 cm) and a weight of about 0.5 kg, the device is easy to transport and use.

Whether for residential complexes, caravan antennas or commercial installations – the Satlink WS-6906 is a reliable choice for precise measurement, fast alignment and dependable operation.

Operations & Practical Advantages

The device is designed for efficient installation and adjustment: the color display combines numerical and bar graph readings, and the acoustic feedback facilitates precise antenna positioning. DiSEqC and USALS support allows for direct control of motorized antennas or automatic positioning. The Live TV/Radio (FTA) function provides additional visual feedback on received programs—useful for fine-tuning.

The backlit keypad and built-in flashlight make working outdoors or on roofs safer and more comfortable. The integrated battery ensures several hours of operation, making the measuring device ideal for mobile use.
