I installed v1.29 at the beginning of the week, and I dont know if its just me or not but the motor controls seems to got messed up. I often have to change channels 10x or more to get the motor to move.

Im on 123.0 and want to watch a channel on 97.0w and the motor wont move, I have to select another channel on another sat, then go back and try the one on 97.0w

anyone else seeing this ? im thinkin its time to downgrade my firmware, lol

I have had my motor stick , and it's almost there and had to go to next sat and back just so it would move a tad for a signal, but in my case I doubt it's firmware.

Now if you are saying you get no movement at all and have to repeat so many times until it moves, you have a problem, especially if this never occured before the upgrade. Go back to the old firmware. Hope it works out.

my merc II had 1.13 on it, I didn't load 1.29 as I now have the merc II disconnected. I had absolutely no motor problems with 1.13
