H20 Receiver. China or Korea

[Acerone]

Does it really matter where the receiver was manufactured? I just bought one made in China and they also had some made in Korea. Isn't their a problem with some that operate slow when changing the channels.?

Thanks

The receivers all have a 3 number notation after the model #, that will tell you witch one you have, I beleive they are -100 and -600 currently.
And I don't remember which is the one with the slower guide is, but I am sure others will pop in and let your know.

I have the 600.

I have the 600.

I guess I don't have the list of "Who makes What " receiver wise, someone had that info in thier signature, I'm not sure who makes the 600 anymore.

Thanks Wolfman,
Was there a perticular H-20 model that had a slow guide ? If so, which one ?
I know one was suppose to run hot, but I can't keep them apart.

As for the OP, I don't know if who made it is all that big of a deal or not, If it does run hot and performs normally, give it some air, move it to an open area or place a fan in the case, if thats the situation.
As long as the unit runs correctly, I would not worry about it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, Dont LOOK for trouble, if it's working fine, If it is giving you trouble, then we can go that route and try to give you other ideas.

Otherwise,
Just enjoy it

The -600 models have the slow guide.

I have the 600.

Looks like you have the one with the slow guide, D* will from time to time send down updates to thier receiver if they know about problems, this type of issue could be fixed with an update, so you could wait and see if they send one or try to find a -100 receiver and swap it out.

I did this to my 600 and it runs much cooler.
