So there is a good chance your just getting the motor. I know snuffer has polar mounts, as im buying one from him. Didnt the polar mount come with the dish? | |||

I'll check with Snuffer, and order one if the motor doesn't come with the polarmount. ![]()

My System: Skystarcard,Fortec's life time ultra's, MaxPlus 2100's,Dreambox and a Tandberg | Read this and a little suprise do not change the motor but the VBOX I have a modification for it so you can take that 5 Volts out of that box in 15 minuts. Step 1 Close to the processor there are a jumper called JP3 This is 5 Volts solder a wire and make it outsite or with a nice connection (its 5 V + so becare full not touch the alu) Step 2 Resitand R3 next to the relais are 3300 Ohm remove it for a wire direct (no restand) and ready are the box with 5 Volts. Rolfw no the mount is not there its only a motor and the 120 mount is not the same as 99Cm i will look of there is a 120 cm somewhere perhaps in a corner. P.s sorry for bad English bud i hope you untherstand the Modification for it. Plaese let me know of you have don it THX Last edited by Snuffer; 31-01-2008 at 07:19 AM. | ||
