    oops, I relized I probably didn't answer your question. but to move the dish you'd still use your analog receiver.

    I have a Motorola 922 and a Satworks 3618. I have the C and Ku lines from the dish split and one side goes direct to the 922 the other sides run into the DiSEqC, then into the LNB port on the 3618. This is called a "slave." All of the functions, polarity, dish motor etc are run by the 922. See PSB for a hook up kit.
