[QUOTE="RustySpoons, post: 1076219, member: 412012"] However a motorised dish can often give a better signal over most fixed dishes, provided the fixed dish has the LNB skewed, whereas the motorised dish will always skew the dish. But all things being equal a fixed dish will be better to dial in the very last drop of signal provided you can skew it. And with motorised dishes due to resolution and calculation errors (If using USALS) some satellites might be more fine tuned than others. I have both a HH-100 with a 1m on it and a 1.2m CM with a PM and Superjack, the HH-100 is more accurate and hits the same place from both directions, the CM1.2 PM will vary in signal slightly depending on what direction its travelled to the dish, so I set the V-Box somewhere in the middle so its roughly the same signal from both directions, although that is not wringing the last bit of signal out. I can get it very slightly higher but its so minor and lowers the signal when it approaches from the opposite direction. However I am thinking of trying different magnetic wheels with more poles on the reed sensor to see if it increases usable resolution. [/QUOTE]
