For now I'm only using two. My Sonicview 8000 for blindscanning and the AZbox Elite which I'm stilled getting used to (only had it for a week). At some point I may get the gremlins worked out of my Coolsat 8100 and hook it up in the bedroom, but for the time being it's not in use.

I selected 2-3 (I use two Visionsat IV-200s and a Digitrans 7150 regularly), but upon reading the thread further, I realized that I forgot to include PCI cards (at times up to two in service concurrently). These numbers also change periodically, depending on whats going on (Space Shuttle mission, etc.)...

I voted 10 or more... :D

The warehouse dont count Jamal ;)

:) LOL!

I have 2.5... Sort of.

Coolsat 5000 / Fortec Dynamic
AZBox Premium

I didn't know how to count the Coolsat and the Fortec since I interchange them.
The AZBox is currently my primary receiver and I can only watch one program at a time.

I have a system setup at my cabin where I use a Coolsat 5000 as well, but I rarely watch TV there. Sometimes I fire it up for music.

1 Coolsat 6000 w/1.2M motorized dish.

I've been "promised" another receiver, but can't remeber for the life of me what kind. I do remember the guy said it had a built-in DVR. I think it's loaded with firmware I have no desire to have/use. If I get it, I hope to find replacement firmware (I know this great place for help in getting the thing back like it's supposed to be - - - -:D).

Embarrassed to admit, I only have one, unless I can also count the dish 942 I use for OTA and NASA (that and angel one are the only FTA satellite it will get so I guess it doesn't count). I'm holding off on any others till I have time to research a box that works as good as the one I have but also does HD and DVB-S2, and/or have time to figure out how to build a media center PC with satellite tuners.
