	Since no one has replied along the lines of ... I've got a dish
that moves and every thing works fine.

	Rotational delay will be an interesting issue. My worst case
scenario from full west to full east is about 45 seconds.

	I am guessing my next step is to start a discussion with the
developers as to how they would like code patches submitted, without
breaking anything for stationary dish users

	Sigh...
