    Is the a linux receiver with built in actuator motor positioner?

    As the title guys, i'm after a linux receiver with built in positioner to control a actuator motor. This is for a family member who is not that technical so really dont want to go down the route of a dreambox & seperate positioner if it can be avoided.

    The dish installed is a big 1.2m channel master which I think is too heavy for a diseqc motor & dont really want to go through the hassle of swapping that either.

    Let me know whats available please.

    Thank you in advance.

      Buy a metal gear motor. Most motors hold upto 1.2 but metal gears hold 1.3 i think so it should work so long as you use a pair of t&k brackets.
      The most simple receiver is the new technomate 5000 series receiver. The 5300usb with 2 multicrypt card reader.

          which Receiver moves a 24" actuator arm properly

          which receiver can move a 12"-36" actuator arm motor
          for a 3m/10ft dish properly without adding any boxes

          16 years ago I owned a "strong" receiver
          which had a built in positioner tp store satellite positions
          it had a separate 24volt outlet to move a 12"-36" actuator motor arm


          can any of these receivers move a 12"-36" actuator motor arm for a 3m/10ft dish

          VIEWSAT FTA 9000HD - SONICVIEW FTA SV-8000

          which is the best FTA receiver ...
