4 Receivers currently in use

Coolsat 5000 - Favorite and primary receiver controlling Stab HH100 w/ 30.0 - 129.0 LOS

Relook 400s - DVR on a stationary 90cm dish pointed @ 30.0 west ( Turned my Mom into a Recordaholic )

Analog Toshiba TRX-2220

4DTV 905 Digital Sidecar

Not in use.

Megasat YT 6688 ( FLU Clone ) - Great Blindscan and Motor control

Megasat comanche ( Piece of Crap IMO )
 
Only one, a visionsat IV200. Sold my viewsat ultra to finance this new reciever and a larger dish. I also used to have a pansat 2500a but that got sold a couple years ago. My next planned purcase is a pci card for 4:2:2 and maybe some high def, but my computer might be to slow for high def.
 

I am surprised you haven't got the Mercury II receiver?
 
I had the Classic and really liked it. Never got my hands on a Merc II yet

Had an Ultra but donated that to someone who needed it to get their FTA system back up and running...there has been a lot of receivers through the Berg household. Off the top of my head
2 Pansat 5000
Pansat 6000
KUSat 2600 (Digiwave 6800 clone)
Microyal 1000
Microyal 900
Satworks 3618 & 3688
Buzz
Viewsat (the orignal)
Coolsat 4000
Neosat i1000
Neusat 6000
Pansat 2700
Pansat 3500
Fortec Ultra
Fortec Classic
Samsung 4700

I'll probably remember a few more
 

Didn't Timmy have a Microyal? I wonder if he ever got it working
 
I have the Coolsat 4000 Pro receiver. How does the Coolsat 5000 compare? If I got rid of the 4000 and got the 5000 or 6000 would I be happy?

the 6000 & 5000 are pretty much the same box sans a epg (yeah like we need that) The original joke was the 6000 is a 5000 in a 4000 body

The 4000 & 5000 I really don't know what the difference is. If I remember right, originally the 4K didnt have AC-3 and the blind scan was goofy (it went from 10700-12950 no mnatter what you used for LNB) and the 5K fixed both of them
