[QUOTE="Rob, post: 172282, member: 176677"] Yesterday did a factory reset and east-west limit reset which are supposed to reset both the motor to zero and reset the receiver. Then using DiSEqC 1.2 set up Thor and then Sirius, so far no problems. I then attempted Hotbird and after a few attempt's managed to set it up. The problem I'm having is that after the dish finds a sat it then moves off and ends up moving between 5 east and 5 west, backwards and forwards. Must admit nearly took a hammer to it yesterday as I'm just getting a little pi**ed off with it. Anyway after three hours I managed to get 42e, 28e, 23e, 19e, 13e, 5e, 1w, 8w, and 30w, which are the sats I wanted and the receiver was moving the dish between each sat with no problem's, and then the wife came home and if by magic I couldn't find Hotbird, the Astra's, and when I say couldn't find I mean that after finding the sat it moved off again to between 5e & 5w. Just to make thing's worse the perfect picture I had on Sirius is now all pixelated. If anyone has any idea's before the hammer comes out please let me know. [/QUOTE]
