[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 854893, member: 243342"] If you mean that if I have my dish parked on 5W for Ku on the east-west actuator and then select the C LNB position on the north-south one, then yes, I don't need to change the east-west position. Likewise, to go from 5W C to 11W C, I only need to move the east-west actuator to 11W with the C position already in place. As it happens, when I select 11W, it corresponds to stored position 11 on both Vboxes - again, if I was already on C position previously, only east-west actuator moves. Er... yes, I haven't quite figured out how to do that. At the moment, if I need to do any adjustments, I switch off one of the Vboxes on the front (I sit about 1.5m away from my TV) and use the remote control after that. If I want to adjust the other one, I push the power button on the remote, which switches one Vbox off and the other one on, allowing me to control the other one. I never used my receiver to send adjustment commands to VBox, so I am avoiding the problem that way. No... Partially because there aren't many in the sky that I know of. There was one at 50E but the dish starts to get shadowed by the house from around 10E onwards, completely losing signal by 45E (can just about see 42E). Clear view to 50W on the other end though.
