    Cool.

    I wish all these Chinese channels were located on one bird, so I wouldnt have to get different dishes or multiple LNBs.... for example, I wish the 3 CCTV4 channels would be on 97w, instead of 95w. (heh).

    Yeah, but I keep hearing people complain it takes too long to move from one sat to the next with a motor.. so you'd change the channel and it may take 5-10 seconds for the dish to move , etc.. then you switch back to the previous channel and the dish moves again.. what a pain ..... or you have to concious of when to flip channels or not.. heh..

    on my ultra you hit the sat button and you only get channels on that sat when you want to go to another sat hit the sat button and you get only the channels on that sat keeps from having the motor jump back and fourth.

    Ok, I can see that being a feature in that particular situation, but the other downside is that changing channels is not seamless.. for example, say you want to switch back and forth between VTV4 and CCTV4 ... that's a pain to have to hit the SAT button to switch back and forth.. d'oh.. heehh..

    ON a motorized system switching between IA5 (VTV4) and G3C (CCTV4) doesn't take more than 5 seconds.
