There is far more good, but here is my personal good and bad.
The good
1. My favorite thing is when you are looking for a sat moving east and west, holding down the button where the dish moves constantly, the signal will shoot up there while moving so you know you passed it and can bump the dish back a bit to fine tune it. On other receivers it seems I would just blow past them and would have to go slowly, sometimes not even finding the sat by using the tps. it is really not making my motor problem that bad since i can easily just go back and find my sat if the motor didnt stop right on key.
2.the picture quality is second to none.
3. the updated tps for using when i am tuning the dish.
4.the detailed scan, i find so much more than i use to even in sd.
5. the easy to use settings and main screen usage and also all the sats being in order on the main screen, some receivers puts them in the order you scan them in.
6. the option to only scan in certain amounts such as the <10,000 or 10000-20000 options.
The bad
1.I hate the moving dish popup and i can see alot of you do to, i already have my finger preset on the exit button every time i do anything other than change a channel so i can exit out of the box
2. my motor isnt stopping on the exact spot alot of times, i checked and notice than on my pansat 3500 the motor is more accurate and actually a little faster, but no biggie!
3. the speed of the scans, not as fast as pansat, but then again it is checking for more detail and also scanning in hd channels so i can understand why.
4. the time it takes for channels to come in sometimes, it makes me think i am off the sat until i check signal and see that the pic just hasnt came in yet.
what do you guys think?

1. been posted numerous times....I do the same thing 
2. as noted this is your motor. I use Diseqc 1.2 and havent run into any issues. Once in a while 91 seems to need a nudge but I think that is more due to the 30" dish I have. Some signals show better at say 91.0 and some show better at 91.2 or so (maybe 2 nudges). But I've seen that for years
3. The Pansat you have just scans DVB whereas the Micro needs to scan for S2 also (not HD).....but I've had Pansats before and they are SLOW when it comes to scanning. And make sure it doesnt hit a "no name" signal (that is it doesnt show a name). My Pansat takes easily 2 to almost 3 minutes to log a "TV1" whereas the Micro is about 10 seconds.
4. I dont see that issue...but a lower signal channel takes longer to lock so that may go back to #2.
All the positives I agree with

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

Can we expect to see a new coach if we say "pretty please?"

Stargate SG-1 cancelled, Atlantis renewed
Monday - August 21, 2006 | by Darren Sumner
The future of Stargate is in question today, as SCI FI Channel has cancelled the long-running Stargate SG-1, Multichannel News reported today and a GateWorld source has confirmed. The news regrettably follows the airing of the show's milestone two-hundredth episode on Friday.
Stargate Atlantis, meanwhile, has been renewed for a fourth season, with the network hoping to see that the spin-off series can stand alone, according to a source.

Really excited for this season with Kentucky having a new coach and some really exciting recruits. Probably won't last long, but here's hoping this season is great.
