    Everything is still fine with the 1.2m dish and there is an increase in signal on most satellites . So as an example Cairo Cinema on Atlantic bird 7 is now 77.3% at night and Stv on 28.2 east is 92.5% on the Triple Dragon satellite receiver.

    Can confirm that the motor only loses its memory when satellite receiver has been in standby or unplugged.Had receiver on night and day recording movies and after 24 hours motor was still working perfect moving to all satellite positions with no loss of memory. :)
