Default Satellite Finder (KU Band) (Pas7/10)

Hi
I have googled unsucessfully, and was hoping somebody here could help out.

I am looking for a schematic for a Satellite Finder for the KU Band
(Pas7/10),
the one that I have used before plugs between the LNB and Decoder, It
derives its power from the feed to the LNB.
You connect an earphone to this unit, and when moving the dish, the tone
varies, from a high pitch when not aligned correctly, the pitch lowers as
you get closer to the center alignment, then the pitch peaks again as you
have the dish centered on the signal.

I know I can buy these units, but it will be more fun trying to make my own.

Please let me know if somebody can point me to schematics.
