[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1148072, member: 176704"] I certainly didn't mean to imply that ALL dishes in that period used H-H motors, but many of the smallish ones did as they were a lot simpler to install and align than those moved by actuators. IIRC, DiSEqC 1.2 began to come into use in the late 1990's and then the upgraded USALS version during the first 10-15 yrs of the 21st C - however, others far more knowledgeable than I can probably correct and expand on that timescale. FWIW, decent quality DiSEqC motors can handle some dishes up to about 1.2m, but the mounting poles and environmental-withstand concerns become an issue from there upwards - that's probably another reason for a de facto limitaton on what can be done with DiSEqC.
