sometimes dish doesn't move.

[septicsmurf]

Morning all.
my setup is a vu+ duo clone, static sky dish plugged into tuner b and a motorised dish plugged into tuner a.
Sometimes when i choose a channel, the flashing satellite comes up but the dish doesn't move. If i try another channel the same thing happens, just the flashing satellite.
Sometimes i sort it by moving dish to 0 or just searching east or west a bit, kind of jolting the dish into action.
If that doesn't work i have to reboot the stb and then choose the channel.
i've also noticed that on 3 occasions i've tried to record 2 things on sly uk at the same time. First recording starts without a hitch but when the second recording starts the motorised dish should move round to 28.2 right? Well just the flashing satellite again and the dish stays put.
i've tried swapping the cables round to see if it was a dodgy tuner, no luck.

Any ideas? Tuner issue, power issue, stb or dish?
thanks for your help.

No one?
Well i'm going to try putting the hdd in a caddy with exernal power source to see if it's a heat/power issue.
Any other suggestions?

Hi mate did u ever get this resolved as I have the same issues with my dish .

No, didn't get it resolved.
The seller is sending me a new receiver though so hopefully that'll sort it.
I suspect it's a psu/heat issue.

Iv got the same problems with my gen duo . I was told the problem was down to possibly a faulty motor or the bracket iv got the dish on not being strong enough as its sat on a T bracket
