    Sorry to ask again, you are definitely using the cable to the motor, not the one direct to lnb on motorised dish?

    Last thing I can suggest, can you try replacing the satellites.xml? Easier to transfer a new chanenl list, Vhannibals is updated regularly.

    If you set up the duo excatly the same and it moves the dish successfully, then I suspect something is wrong with your hardware.

    Not sure how up to date the ones in the plugins are, but will serve your purpose.

    If manually downloaded onto PC, normally transfer using Dreamset/Dreamboxedit.

    Personanly I prefer to deal with problems in isolation. Once resolved add other variables. In your case, I would start of with get your E2 receivers to move the motorised dish.

    Also, may I suggest that you draw a picture. Should look like attached, finish off with which wire is connected to which tuner. Add/dleet wires as required.

    the dish is picking up the signal on the dish now but on the tuner has a weak signal strength & keep breaking up I have used dish pointer & got Latitude: 54.7860°
    Longitude: -1.3572° but my compass on my phone is 54.4711 n 1.2125w on my iphone .

    also when I am on sat finder do I have it set to predefined transponder or manual transponder
