Dr.Dish:Have a look in the recent issue of TSI (page 78 ff). We tested
the STAB Rotor HH100. It is a very strong and very quiet device and will
run on your existing coax-cable. The HH100 uses the new DiSEqC 1.2
version. Even if your receiver does not support v 1.2, a optional small
interface will make it work. It was one of the best rotors we tested so
far. For a first impression go to the TSI-homepage. At this moment I
have no practical experiennce with the Omnisat, but if NOKIA decided to
use the STAB on the skandinavian market (with extrem low temperatures)
it could be the better choice.
