    It is around 14 degrees here, and I noticed that when I tried to move my dish with the 4DTV reciever, the actuatuator count on my reciever doesn't change, but I can hear my dish moving. When I try to re-setup a satellite, when I try to move the satellite east and west, it gives me the message...
