    AMIKO can't move my dish?

    I'm not sure what i need, I have a North American sat list that is about a year old, I would think I could plug in a new sat manually if one came up. . it's a good think I had backups.

    Help me understand the best way to come at this.

    Ok guys here are some photos I have pulled together. Understand, all the wires where cut and the feed horn / lnb assembly and cone had been removed before I got there. So the owner just gave me a box of disassembled parts. The drive motor seems to work well in both directions but needs some more...
