[QUOTE="cmclean, post: 51522, member: 180736"] I had a problem a while back with my positioner getting confused as to where the dish was. At the time I was using plain and thin 2 core cable for the motor and the same for the sensor, similar stuff to speaker cable. It turned out that the sensor cable was picking up interference from the motor cable and screwing things up. I changed the cables to 6 core, similar to telephone cable, using 2 of the cores for the sensor and doubling up the remaining 4 for the motor. Since then I have had no problems. Cheers [/QUOTE]
