[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 573972, member: 175144"] Haga, it does sound as though this is not a problem with the Fortec receiver, but more the V-Box. This has to be cleared completely in the memory when first connected otherwise the position data remains, even if you have simply moved the motor to find a signal. In DiSEqC mode the recever sends commands to the motor to count back or forwards from the reference position (0 degrees), nothing more. With a V-box inserted, the reference position is determined by one of the limits of the arc. I have had problems in the past with the earlier V-boxes on some systems, but once replaced to a V-Box 2 those issues disappeared. The only troubles I had with the Passion receiver was remembering to 'tick' the positions in the satellite menu after allocating the motor settings, and one lockup when viewing some broadcast off 42 East, but otherwise I would say it was about the friendliest receiver to tune in. And as the poster above says, it is brilliant value for money. [/QUOTE]
