    Motorised dish not moving with lnb plugged in

    Hi all, Thanks for the various replies, I was away for a bit and then got distracted by life... Turns out it was just the linking cable between the motor and LNB (also swapped the input to #1, but not sure if that made a difference). I'll probably be back with some more questions at some...

    Motorised dish not moving with lnb plugged in

    Yes, motor runs fine without the LNB. Really don't want to change receiver it cost a considerable amount and is brand new. I would assume that they should be made for this its not exactly an extreme use case is it... Do current boosters exist?

Can I diesec motor be used with this setup? For my understanding, you use er eitha 36V positioner and H2H or a diesec motor and they...

    Advice Needed Dual dish set-up

    Hi, I'm after Turksat and Arabsat if I can reach that far, basically looking in the direction , not sure exactly what else I could pick up. Honestly it probably won't be a H2H dish, that is probably overkill I was more interested if it is possible to do what I suggested and have a positioner in...

    Advice Needed Dual dish set-up

    Hi all, Hope this is the correct place (apologies otherwise - please move). I am after general help, to see if what I am after is possible. I have been asked to help design a system as I have a network engineering background, however satellite systems beyond a standard sky dish set-up are out...
