Yes, I tried Diseqc... It didn't move the motor. I then bought a Dynamic receiver, tried that, and it works great. I think it tunes into stations faster than the Mercury II did.

I used the old Mercury II to help find stations on my new 'old' C-band set up. It was good for that since I was using a V-Box and actuator to move the big dish. I will try the Mercury II again on my smallest motorized system to see if shorter wire may work...

Thanks for you comments and help.
