Motorized dishes are great because in most cases you only need one dish to see the entire arc. For those of us who started on C-Band years ago,the time it takes for the dish to cover the arc is no big deal.

There are so many satellites in the sky that unless you have a lot of money to spend on multiple toroidal dishes and LNBs, a beefy motor like the DG380 is a perfect solution.

HH saves your legs. Don't have to walk out to the dish every time you want to change satellites.

I am in agreement with md_paul. It is a good idea to use a HH Motor to keep the number of dishes down and WAF up. A serious problem for me.

I love using an HH motor to receive the entire arch. I don't miss out on anything and if it wasn't for the guys here I wouldn't be in this hobby. Cheers to all!

A good reason as stated is to cut down on the number of dishes.Another is that if a new sat goes up somewhere all ya gotta do is move the motor over to it.
My fave reason for having one and didn't even know it till this winter is snow.If I get snow on my dish I don't go out anymore I just give the motor a quick east/west and it shakes it off. Oh yea and there is lots of TV too! Wish I had one for all my stb's
