[QUOTE="BM300, post: 904234, member: 247938"] [INDENT]20 years back I was using a device from a company in Pakistan called Waveteck on my Echostar 5500.

Later on I simply connected a saginaw actuator that I simply controlled with a remote control once the dish stoped moving. The dish was controlled by Echostar 8700. That was an H/H 14ft dish by Paraclipse. It is no longer in use as the satellites became more powerful so smaller 1 meter dishes are connected to an 8 input DiseqC switch. [/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
