[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 773159, member: 325666"] fwiw ...I have had _bad_ actuator arms in the past .. ..even from new there was play in them ...in that without a dish attached ..it was possible to pull on the extension arm part of the jack ..and there was between a 1/16 ...and an 1/8th inch of play allowing it to be physically pulled by this much by hand .. There was no cure I could think of ..and I ended up sending it back ..paying a bit more and buying a different brand. It might not seem like a lot to the manufacturer ..and maybe within tollerance ...but on a large dish with a narrow beam width ...accuracy was crucial. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
