[QUOTE="aceb, post: 833133, member: 268811"] It's an old motor, my original 2100A that seems to keep on going with a bit of TLC. The harware limits are actually rattling around inside the casing after I threw caution to the wind seeing how far east I could reach. :-lmao I've a bit more time today so I'll try a motor reset although I'm not sure the F3 would throw up the 'Out of Range!' box if it was software set on the motor (I noticed there's still a pin poked into the fascia board from my original install). Will also see if the same issue happens to the east and then try rolling back to the original firmware from June last year in case it's been recently introduced. It's not a show stopper with just two satellites out of reach to the west neither of which are really used and I can't see any further than 45E from this spot but now I've noticed it I'd like to get to the bottom of it.
