AB IPBox 900HD, 80cm dish on rotator
+ Fortec Star Beta on a fixed dish

Just bought an IPBox 900HD a few days ago. My previous box was a cheap Fortec unit.
Have had great fun working out how to update the image and getting it to link to my home network, but all done now
I have one issue with the box...
Most of the key satellites are locking on nicely with USALS and giving very good signals. However, some satellites on the extreme east or west are not so good. My guess is that my dish and motor may not be perfectly vertical. However, the Fortec was able to get good signals from these satellites.
I can improve the reception using DiSEqC 1.2 and adjusting the position of the dish slightly. However, when I store the position, the box doesn't seem to remember the new position and reverts to the original position when I press Goto or return to the satellite.
Is this a bug? Has anyone else come across this problem?
