[QUOTE="tom55, post: 1154169, member: 417964"] Hi I'm facing this problem ever since i got inverto wideband LNB, there are times when moving dish via diseqc commands hangs, hitting the button in software, either linux or windows - the dish does not move not even a step. It is skyrevolt motor bought from germany, using PCTV 461e tuners, no any other equipment inline, if i connect it to IBU, PLL premium or old STi LNB there are no problems. Or, if i disconnect wideband LNB from motor it immediately responds to commands and moves. Read elsewhere it might be a cable problem, however i do get all channels, and obviously it works with other or no LNBs. Thought maybe a power issue, but this model consume less than IBU according to specs, and looking at the wall meter i can confirm it consumes less than IBU on 18V, with both of its ports active. I figured out to try driving it via hw button on motor itself when it doesn't want to move, and surprise, driving either east or west for as long as needed works everytime without issues. This would rule out power problem. Can't understand why would LNB block diseqc commands to motor. Any ideas? To return it and ask for replacement? [/QUOTE]
