does a motor work reliably on an AZBOX....say i had 2 programs to record per day, on two different satellites, would it move the dish, record, and move back reliably>

i have found my topfield 5500 to do this seamlessly and its 5 years old now! approx

I had a technomate 6900hd before plucking for a premium azbox. found the technomate alot better for setting up with motorised system. once you get used to the azbox its not to bad . when i first set azbox i used my old tm to move dish then stored the channels and sat on the azbox. i got rid of the tm a while ago now and after bad weather had to replace lnb so retuned azbox wasnt too bad but still prefered the tm for tuning:respect-055:

No problems with USALS here. Its been solid for many firmwares.

no problems here either... lack of epg at the moment means you won't be able to schedule a recording though..

Got some cheap diseqc1.2 positioner and works rock solid with 18" actuator for six months by now..
