Hi There,
I've acquired a 1.1M triax dish and have a DiseqC 1.2 capable receiver. I wish to motorise setup. As luck would have it the dish came with a polar mount. Thus the way I see it I have a few options:
1) 36V actuator + Vbox capable of translating DiseqC 1.2.
2) DiseqC 1.2 H to H motor.
Do I have other options?
What should I got for?
On the actuator front I've noticed they come in different lenghts 12",18",24" etc - how does one know what length to get - is it dish size or complete arc in degrees which is the deciding factor?
I also note in a previous post there is such a thing as a DiseqC 1.2 capable actuator, but it seems nobody has any experience of these to date ( http://tinyurl.com/5vtzn )... is this still the case?
Cheers
