Hi pace508
If you are using a 36volt motor you don`t use latitude just move the dish with the DreamBox and the vbox, then store it, then use the stored position in the DreamBox setup.

can the vbox be hidden out of sight.thanks

yes, but from time to time you will need to see the readout on the front of it.

what would that be for

if you want to add a new satellite position its possible to calculate roughly were it should be using the settings you already have i.e 1deg of dish movement = 10rpm of the motor.
