[QUOTE="gurabli, post: 1030059, member: 105904"] I hope you can help me in this! I have my dish with a motor mounted. I have also received my DVB-S2 card (DVBSky S950). I will install the card tonight and see if MP supports diseqc motor functions on this card (fingers crossed). We have checked the setup with a dreambox, the dish is properly aligned, all the satellites are precisely configured. The question is, if I connect the dish to my card, and the dish will be positioned on lets say 28.2E, I scan the channels there, I believe it will work without any problems. But if I start to move the dish with the diseqc motor tab left or right (West or East), how will I know where the dish is located at the moment? For example, the dish is positioned at 28.2E and I want to move it to 39.0E (HellasSat2), how will I know when I have reached 39.0E?
