    Is Stars still alive?

    ADVERTS 1
    Don't mean to start any crap, but just wondered of anyone about how STARS is progressing. I was thrown out of another site when I questioned their so-called leaders and I have yet to see a post in here about it. Just wondering, I know Scott was quite vocal about it on the transmitter news.

    STARS was started as a group representing satellite installers and retailers as sort of a union. Supposedly to help all who joined, all they ever accomplished was collecting money for dues and fees and nothing else.

    Ah, I remember reading something about that a while back. I haven't seen anything else about it though.

    I don't doubt it. The so called leader of the group has a history of getting others to pay him for ideas he claims will save the industry. Just another group of guys who can't pay their own bills but claim that if you pay them, they will help you make more money to pay yours.

    So far the only thing they are trying to do is make rules so that members can not talk badly in public about Stars.

    But as far as doing anything together to help the industry they haven't done a damn thing.

    Stars is a joke.
