Thanks again guys fro the input.
My mounting pole is 100% plumb.
I'm not really worried now about getting my arc spot on because it is pretty close and very easy to sort out once all the obvious problems are solved.
The dish is an Orbit ( I think) 1 meter.
The motor is a brand new Fortec Star DiSEqC H-H Motor.
"Designed for receivers with DiSEqC 1.2.
Ultra low now.
For dishes upto 1.2 meters.
Goto X function - USALS"
There's no mention of a model number on the box.
It's connected directly to my DM600PVR with brand new sat tuner, by about 18 meters of what was desscribed to me as a premium sat coax by the people I bought it from , recommemnded by digidude.
There are no splitters or anything else in line.
All connections and f connectors have been double checked and are clean and tight making good contact.
The most obvious problem at this time is the motor just has no consistency. It does seem to move east everytime with no trouble at all, but the majority of times, I just dosen't move at all when it should be moving west.
AsI said, even using the east/west buttons on the bottom of the motor, the same problem is present, and when it should be moving west and dosen't, the LED on the motor is lit up red, or orange according to the motor manual.
The next step is to do a motor hardware reset, which unless my arms grow about 10 feet pretty soon, I'm gonna have to wait till I can find some friend/muppet to clmb the ladder and hold both east and west buttons while I power cycle my dreambox
I'll be back.
