Then go into DiSEqC1.2 and move the motor till you reach 119 and save that position. Then move it to 110 and save that position, then move it to 91 and save that position. Now you can scan all these channels and you will find the motor will move to the sats on its own.
However, if you change the receiver, then you have to do all of the above for that receiver.That was your problem. You were under the impression that since you have setup the motor for the CW that it should work with the NF. No it wont.
All the positions were saved on the CW. The NF does not have that same info in its memory. You need to do it again and save it for NF.
I hope this information is clear toyou.

Very clear .. Vgiddy .. and I appreciate the time you took to answer me. The problem is .. the dish won't move at all. The lights on the motor are not on. I don't know if they come on when I try to move the dish cause I live alone, but, sometimes, with the window open I can hear the engine working. There is no sound. Yes .. I did move it manually but only when I had the cable direct from the lnb to the receiver, bypassing the motor. The thought dawned on me that perhaps if I turned the dish by hand and got a signal, then I would know that the motor is fried and not the lnb. If I didn't get a signal then I think that the lnb is fried. The question is: does the lnb have to be working to tricker the receiver to move the dish. I have been told no.. but, perhaps that person is mistaken.
