[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 741461, member: 325666"] Hi Wod .. I currently use an old Echostar AP3000 receiver...though I have also used an old NEC stand alone positioner in the past .. I hope one day to replace the Echostar with another V box ..working on the theory that I can send one signal from any of the receivers ...(diseqc 1.2) ...down the LNB feed ...which will loop back and be split between both V-boxes ...thus moving both actuators ..and therefore setting both the position on the arc ...and the elevation offset on any given bird .. Providing both v boxes are set say to position 1 ..for bird A ...position 2 for Bird B ..etc etc .. This will fully automate the process ..at a minimal cost.. As to the 8 inch jack being strong enough .. I may take CH's advice and employ a counterweight at some point.. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
