I have 60cm dish, so I use just few satelites near Hotbird.

Yes, I am trying to do it (as in Windows), but I am unable to find anything with vdr-rotor, because signal information is always positive, I don't understand how it works. I can move rotor step by step and I don't see signal lows and highs. > All needed diseqc commands are explained here: > http://www.eutelsat.org/satellites/pdf/Diseqc/associated%20docs/position > _app_note_v1.pdf Thanks a lot. -- Free Software - find interesting programs and change them NetHack - meet interesting creatures, kill them and eat their bodies Usenet - meet interesting people from all over the world and flame them Decopter - unrealistic helicopter simulator, get it from http://decopter.sf.net
