rai uno said:Whilst it may seem obvious that Motors with all metal gearing should be longer lasting, is there evidence showing that that is so?
Good point, the metal gear DiSEqC motors have not been around long enough to prove that they will last longer.They will only be as strong as the weakest component and they are being sold on the basis that they are better able to handle larger dishes, even this has not been proven over the longer term.
