Bronze Member Username: Ez2ctvPlatinum Mem... Post Number: 69 Registered: Dec-07 | In the current state of FTA testing, One would be wise not to invest a lot of money into new equipment at this point and time. That being said it's hard to beat the VALUE in captive Works Boxes and 3rd party support. If looking for under $100.00 the CW600S Premium is solid and the 600S REGULAR also shines if you can find it for around $ 60 - 70.00 US dollars. NOTE: these 2 boxes are due to be fazed out from production and distribution, BUT NOT from support. The NEXT generation of BASIC boxes from CAptive Works is the 700 & 800 series. The cost difference between these 2 is only $ 10 -15.00, both allow updates thru USB (easier than updates thru RS232 cable) With the 800 allowing you to use a external Hard drive to store / Time shift video (Think TiVo) Here are the specifications for the 800 (and this would be my current recomendation with the current state of testing) Standard Features: - MPEG-2 Digital and Fully DVB-S Compliant - SCPC/MCPC Receivable from C/KU Band Satellite - User Friendly OSD Menu with Full Function - Installation by Easy Setup Guide - 100 Satellites, 6000 Channels and 5000 transponders - Brilliant On Screen Graphic - Small Picture in Graphic and Zoom Function - 8 Favorite Groups and Parent Lock Function - EPG, including 4 days data fast download and timer - Supports DiSEqC 1.0/1.2/ 1.3(USALS) and 22KHz Tone - Fast Channel Switching Back to top Outstanding Value: - 256 Color Graphic User Interface - High Sensitivity QPSK Tuner and Demodulator - Multi Timer Function and Favor - Network Search and Easy Tunning - Multi Languages: English/German/French/Italian/Spanish/Arabic/Turkish/Persian/Russian - Support 20 Audio PID (Language) - Support 20 Audio PID(Language) - RS232 Port for Additional Information Service and Upgrading Software - Multi Pictures Selection,4/9/10/12/13/16 - PLL RF Modulator Ch3/Ch4 with NTSC M 14-83 - 4:3,16:9. Letter Box and Pan & Scan - LNB Power Overload Protection - Universal Remote Controller(TV/VCR/DVD/STB) - VFD Vacuum Fluorescent Display - Components output:Y,Pb,Pr. - Digital Audio output(S/PDIF) - Blind Scan Back to top Optional Features: - S-Video Output - Zoom and Games - PIP(Picture in picture) - USB 2.0 SUPPORTED - PVR Ready With Time Shift - Download Software/channel data/SatCODX Formal File - View JPEG/Play MP3/MPEG2 Player |

Silver Member Username: BalujaPost Number: 184 Registered: Jun-06 | Is no one recomending Nfusion |
|
Platinum Member Username: LklivesPost Number: 15057 Registered: Jan-06 | Nfusion is a great receiver too and updates itself over the internet, and is never down...about $199 plus wireless for another $50, so about $250 ballpark...initial setup is a little harder than most and requires more reading and a little puter knowledge,.. but once setup, then set it and forget it... |

Silver Member Username: Bill038Post Number: 637 Registered: Sep-06 | It depends on what you want to spend. You got money to burn, nfusion, you don't look for something LK recommended. I have nfusion and viewsat ultra and love both of them. Big difference in price. Listen to LK, he won't do you wrong. |
