Hi, so now I have set up my fixed dish I want to add a motor, why ? I want more HD channels & adult content. I spoke to my local satellite shop and the chaps said that I would struggle to get a grey cam to work with my Passion+ box as Fortec block these cams. I am not sure what I need to buy, or even if what I want is available.
Any suugestions? Thanks

The best Cam at the moment is the Diablo 2.3, as it opens the Conax packages of Canal Digital 1W and DigitAlb 16e, although you can not open the HD channels on 16E but there are a few on 1W currently available.
There seems to be quite a few problems with the Passion + receiver and constant software updates, judging from a few posts on the forums.
I would advise you check with fellow owners to see what problems they are currently experiencing, and which cams work best in the receiver with which firmware version, but motorizing your dish is a very good idea.
