It's a good idea to use a HH motor to track all sateliites in the Clarke Belt. More satellites=more FTA.

 

[Swamp_Rat]

Why wouldn't you want to motorize your dish with a HH and take full advantage of all the satellites available to FTA?

 

[babcea]

A motorized system is the only way to go IMO, you only need on dish in the yard so you are more likely to get the wife to go along with it,and there is no reason for all the switches and cables to run,and that saves alot of time.
Haveing an H-H motor lets you swing on over to your favorite channel after it has been moved from one sat to another,with a fixed dish you would have to get out in the cold and move the dish and try to find the sat,with the motor it is as easy as 1-2-3.

I sure could use a heavy duty one like this, I am planning some mini bud experiments and this is exactly what I need. Good luck to me!

 

[linuxman]

There's always a need to motorize a dish.

Count me in!

 

[brentb636]

Count me in. I'm running 2 motorized dishes plus 1 in the shed until spring. Love the flexibility of a motor , and frankly , it's easier to aim than a fixed dish . Count me in for one of these babies.

 

[Larobpra]

As the others have said, one dish with a motor will get you more to watch without a yard full of dishes.

Thanks Sadoun! Keep the contests coming!

 

[DJ Rob]

I used to have over 100 dishes in my backyard for FTA (not really)
Now I only need one with a motor!
And I could always use a better motor like this one!

 

[mred]

As someone who uses one of these motors on a Primestar 84e, I can vouch that it's great to have a motorized dish, especially when the weather is this cold and you don't want to go outside to adjust anything.

 

[cracklincrotch]

Best reason of all: MOTORS REDUCE YOUR WIFE AGGRAVATION FACTOR!

 

[eurosport]

I could take down 3 of my Ku dishes and set up ONE with a new MOTOR!:up

There's always a need to motorize a dish.

the more the merrier

Count me in too!

I got one of my three HH motors from Sadoun. HH motors are cool because it is cost effective and simple to only have to connect one cable from receiver to motor. Your system will stay working longer because there is much less to go wrong.

If you are into true Free to Air programming like I am, having a good HH motor is indispensable.

 

[phlatwound]

Motors are good for scaring the birds that want to roost and crap on my dish.

My other DG380 needs a twin for company, thanks for the contest, Sadoun!

 

[Cadsulfide]

Thanks for the great contest offer!

I'm pretty happy with my array of fixed dishes, but a motor would be cool for feed hunting!

 

[MikeinBaja]

Thanks for sponsoring another great contest.

Motor would let me take down fixed dishes so I don't look like CIA HQ anymore!

 

[DishDigger]

Thanks SADOUN

I've been wanting to check other sats, but, at my age, it's risky climbing the ladder to the edge of the roof to aim the dish. This would be a great outfit to put on my almost new SADOUN dish.:up

 

[dunnsept]

I want to look like CIA HQ and I think I'm not there yet, with only one 9 footer in the yard..
and motorized dishes are just plain cool.. people drive by and go "WHOA! was that moving?" "no way duuuuude, you're like just like seeing things man it's not moving."
"it WAS moving!" "dude, you'd better let me drive now"

 

[skysurfer]

It is a good idea for a FTA system to have a HH motor because there are too many good feeds and channels located throughout the arc. It's too hard to find one satellite to fix a dish to and it can be a pain if the weather is bad to go out and move the dish to another satellite to watch something else.
