Heya SGFs how goes it? I was just watching a episode of SG-1 and I found myself wondering how in some instances the Stargate dials when there is an incoming wormhole. Yet there are other instances when the chevrons just light up and *kawhoosh!* (v),.,(v)

I too have noticed this, perhaps it depends whether they use the portable gates on set or just cgi.Best quotes ever:
O’NEILL: I hope you like Guinness, Sir. I find it a refreshing substitute for food.
Jack O'neill: I hope you diplomatically told him where to shove it.
Teal'c:If you once again try to harm me or one of my companions, my patience with you will expire.
Carter: You know, you blow up one sun and suddenly everyone expects you to walk on water.
Thor:I like the yellow ones
O´Neill:Hey, if you had been listening, you´d know that Nintendos pass through everything.

its not a plot hole, its the effects company cutting costs. So instead of making the prop spin (lots of moving parts) that cost alot of money money, they did a short cut thats not REALLY that important.
If your looking for more...the freezing from coming from the other side of a wormhole and the not instant transportation through the stargate (Daniel's first time through the stargate)
