I could take down 3 of my Ku dishes and set up ONE with a new MOTOR!

Count me in too!

I got one of my three HH motors from Sadoun. HH motors are cool because it is cost effective and simple to only have to connect one cable from receiver to motor. Your system will stay working longer because there is much less to go wrong.
If you are into true Free to Air programming like I am, having a good HH motor is indispensable.

Motors are good for scaring the birds that want to roost and crap on my dish. 
My other DG380 needs a twin for company, thanks for the contest, Sadoun!

Thanks for the great contest offer!
I'm pretty happy with my array of fixed dishes, but a motor would be cool for feed hunting!

Thanks for sponsoring another great contest.
Motor would let me take down fixed dishes so I don't look like CIA HQ anymore!

| |  Thanks SADOUN
I've been wanting to check other sats, but, at my age, it's risky climbing the ladder to the edge of the roof to aim the dish.  This would be a great outfit to put on my almost new SADOUN dish. |

I want to look like CIA HQ and I think I'm not there yet, with only one 9 footer in the yard..
and motorized dishes are just plain cool.. people drive by and go "WHOA! was that moving?" "no way duuuuude, you're like just like seeing things man it's not moving."
"it WAS moving!" "dude, you'd better let me drive now"

It is a good idea for a FTA system to have a HH motor because there are too many good feeds and channels located throughout the arc. It's too hard to find one satellite to fix a dish to and it can be a pain if the weather is bad to go out and move the dish to another satellite to watch something else.
