[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 772689, member: 369937"] Your not running through any type of satellite switch first are you? The motor should be the first thing in line from the reciver, it should go, receiver, motor (any switch) then the LNB. Also if the coax is too long it may be that the DC voltage drop is too high and the motor is getting short changed on DC voltage and it wont move correctly. The coax with a copper plated steel center conductor will have a higher DC resistance then the good stuff with a pure copper center conductor, if your run to the motor is over 30 meters you could have problems if the coax is the cheaper stuff.
