[QUOTE="BGonaSTICK, post: 126597, member: 176912"] FWIW the Moteck clamps are sh!t (rolled threads, cheap, junky material, cr@p plating) but the motor is great. Very reliable, very quiet. Nylon main drive gear - keeps the noise level down to a whisper. Bronze (IIRC) drive gear in the STAB - slightly stronger - though maybe not as tough and MUCH noisier. Stab has better sensors (and 2 rather than 1, again IIRC). Just fit some decent clamps if you go with the Moteck. Don't judge the motor on this ancillary point. The nylon gears also wear very well. BTW, Japanese steel is the way to go these days. The Europeans just can't beat it at anywhere near the price! I agree though that a really high quality DiSEqC motor would sell like hot cakes - even at twice the price they are now. I'd certainly have one! :D [/QUOTE]
