[QUOTE="Old Satellite, post: 5326, member: 175277"] This seems like the mount is bent or some thing- it should rotate with your hand easily. The 9-10 amps is way to high even if the battery charger output is only 12 volt. the superjack 36 " normally draws around the three amp mark under full stall load 3600 Ibs if i remember, i use one for elevation and it only draws around 2 amp moving the elevation of my 3.7Mtr. Some thing is way wrong, it seems like some thing is having to bend when you power the jack to move the dish. A 36" heavy duty jack (Von Wiese or a Superjack) should easily move your dish and even a 4.5mtr without to much of a problem. can you see at the mount any thing that is bending or binding? Dont give up on the DH dish under the right conditions, it is pretty much one of the best dishes (highest gain) that you can buy. its extra gain over uour old dish could be anything from 2-6 db (3 db is a doubling in recieved signal strength) on the KU Band dependent upon the condition of the old dish.
