Existing satellite signal meters cannot communicate with the SWM, and therefore cannot be used for dish alignment. The DIRECTV Clinic team has developed an add-on module that will allow communication between the SWM and existing signal meters. The team has also designed a simple meter to measure cable loss in a customer&#8217;s home and ensure compatibility with the wider frequency band required by the SWM system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DIRECTV, Inc.
