Well...I am having a viewsat platinum. It has mean great. But it doesn't have a blindscan function nor USB plug-in. Therefore, I'd like tp have another unit a little better. I heard Coolsat is easier to catch the signal from IA5. I am a newbie. I tried to read as many as I can but some info are...

because it 's about the same price - $150 and I have heard good things about those two lately. Would you recommend something else in that price range?

Hi all- Between these two FTA receivers which one should I buy?

I have a Viewsat Platinum. There is not blindscan feature on it :( Another question, will this dish DTV36EDS be big enough to catch IA5 since it is elliptical, not 36" round ?

I tried your suggestion and set the skew but it didnt work neither. Any thought?

The skew that I get from dishcalculator is -2.7. But in the back of my reflector doesn't have that number. I think 90 is center. :(

I need some help guys...I am trying to set up my DTV36EDS to get IA 5 satellite, specifically VTV4 using the orginal 95 lnb. I hook it straight to my Viewsat platinum receiver. However, I got great signal up to 85 but no quality at all. What did I do wrong? My location is san antonio, TX...

Hi...would you mind telling me where is the dealer in San Antonio? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
