[QUOTE="damhy, post: 67031, member: 181680"] I read that review: [url="http://www.satcritics.com/hardware.php"]http://www.satcritics.com/hardware.php[/url] (Top in the list of editorial reviews: "Diseqc 1.2 Motors") and then I bought one, its working well and after a reasonable amount of time and use with my 85cm dish there is no more play in it than before. But the review is a good starting point for comparison because they go to the extent of dismantling the motors, and letting you know about the wear. But I think its down to dish size and location mainly, if you live in a very windy location, or have a dish bigger than 1m, you are probably not going to want to use a diseqc motor and would be better getting a specific motor for a specific dish. Its just that the way diseqc motors attach by clamps, which means that they can easily slip out of alignment in strong enough winds. Not happened to me yet thankfully. [/QUOTE]
