Ok.
Now that we know the motor works! There is only two possible problems.
One you have bad cables. Iam using over 100ft.
Two you have a receiver with a weak output voltage, unable to supply
enough current to the motor through the cable. You might try an
RG6 quad shield cable. Also check the resistance of your long cable with
a multi-meter. Should be no more than 1.8 ohm for the shield and under
1 ohm for the center conductor. (Checking from end to end)
Just thought of something else to check. If you purchased coax cable from
a local store with connectors already installed. Take a flashlight and look
at the metal pins inside the 'F' connectors on the receiver and the motor.
The pins are like a spring fork you should see no gap or a very tiny gap.
Coax cable from the stores have a very flat tip center conductor which
makes it easy to damage the pins of the 'F' connector on the receiver and
motor. You have to be very gentle when placing the coax cable on the receiver and motor.
