bypass reed switch?

[i4tas]

I have a c-band dish with a ku and dss lnbs mounted on the sides and move the dish where ever i want manually, eventually stooping when signal comes in. I know i have a bad reed switch. replacing a vonwise reed switch is more than the actuator itself. Since i manually move it, is their a way to trick the old analog c-band receiver that its working? By the way right now i can move it about 1/2 a degree per click, (it will stop once it notices the switch ain't working) pressing the east button 40 times is slow. I have the actuator setup to not go to far east and west with those safety switches in the actuator.

Don't know of a trick like this but if you Google von weise reed sensor you can find the reed sensor for $19.95
