[QUOTE="djc53320661, post: 6249"] [updated:LAST EDITED ON 14-Jul-02 AT 11:00 PM (GMT)]Hmmm hadn't really thought about the possibilty of motorising the existing dish (zone 2), if I understand u correct. Is this a possibility then and what equipment would I need to do that. I understand I wouldn't get all the avail Sats due to the size of the dish, but it would give me greater options than just the Astra/Hotbird combo wouldn't it. Sorry to sound a bit lame as I am fairly new to this game and pretty much know next to nothing about motorised systems. I have been looking and presume I need something like this for example:- Budget DiSEcQ motormount 80cm - Budget DiSEcQ motormount for use with dishes up to 80cm. Popular budget mount. Would this be ok and would I need anything else to go with the above and how hard are these to fit ? Another daft question how do u power the motor ? I understand that I can move the dish by using my PC/Software ? Thanks again Chris :) BTW I had to forget about the use of the zone 1 dish as its still being used to view the FTA stuff. [/QUOTE]
