I have had a SatLink WS6906 satellite finder for some years without use
but the time has come to put it back into service. Unfortunately it only
does Astra 2A, 2B, and 2D but of course we are now on Astra 2E, 2F, and
2G so my box cannot find the birds. It also looks as though SatLink are
no longer in business so I cannot get a software update.

The nearest device that I can find is a GTMedia V8 but there is nowhere
that gives any indication of which satellites it 'knows' about.

Anyone got one of these machines and/or can tell me what it knows?

TIA

You can manually add new satellites. All the data you need for Astra 2E
etc can be found online.
