[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 1006271, member: 325666"] Not the end of the story Nelson .. unfortunately .. Yes I can now more the dish from full East to West ..but having re-synced the Vbox ..I cannot accurately get it to return to a set position ... Not surprising really as Err 2 still keeps occurring .. Err 2 indicates afaik that the pulse count is not being read ..correctly.. So either there is another issue ...or more likely the New-ish Venture has been damaged .. ie the internal mag wheel is not rotating as it should .. A job for another day I think. Ideas or suggestions welcomed.. Why is it that I have gone through at least 5 actuators in 5 years whereas the one I had on Christina prior lasted over 12 years ?? My opinion ..fwiw .. everything is built to fail .. nothing made to the same quality as it once was.. c'est la vie If only I could get my hands on a 24 inch Von-Weise from older stock.. Those were built to last a lifetime [/QUOTE]
