[QUOTE="aceb, post: 795097, member: 268811"] I removed the screw and used something very small to push the block out of the way, it's still rattling around inside the case. I'm not entirely sure the working of these motors, I'm about as close to the Meridian as you can get yet when I'm on 66E the motor points to 69.8. My quick check to see if the dish has gone out after a gale is to take readings of 45E and 45W, they should both be 48.3° either side of 0. When it's been out of line in the past and I've manually nudged it onto 68.5E the software has reported it as far as 73.8° but I've never tried looking just how much further it will go. When I set Mikes Darkmotor up that reached ABS1 75E without a problem but ISTR it was VERY close to the internal limit. [/QUOTE]
