    Diseqc Motor Lifespan!!

    Hello! I have a holiday house where I would like to set up a dish. Since I'm in a zone with volatile reception of the satellites I mainly want (26e and 28.2e), I would like a Diseqc motor so that I could easily swap between them and even have access to a whole lot more channels. I come here for about 21 days per year, being those mainly split in single weekends during the year. How long can I expect the motor to last? Thanks in advance.

    Also depending on your location? If 28.2E is dificult to pick up then you might be better to go with 27.5W for UK fta channels (just need a special setup)
