I go with the Visionsat IV-200 satellite receiver simply because of the DVR feature. In the early days (1983-4) when it was illegial to have a dish we went ahead and created one and used an old Alliance Tena-Rotor to change polarity. Not since that time have I been able to experience the simple fun and delight that was created just by finding a new "feed."
Although the implementation of the "brainless" hook-up for the Echostar and Dish services gives unparalled HD, as well as a world-class SD, I really long for the excitement of finding one more "Satellite City", "Dr. Gene" or other experimental broadcast.
Oh, and the Visionsat IV-200 satellite receiver? Well, at my advanced age it's nice to go to bed at 9 PM and still see the broadcasts that you young folk don't yawn your way through.

I would like a Visionsat IV-200 due to the DVR function. Since I got a tivo very early on I can't imagine watching TV of any kind without a DVR.
I would go with Visionsat, and like others....feel the PVR capability is what sways my decision.
I would choose the Visionsat IV-200 because of the PVR recording abilities. This would be new to me but sounds like a fun new hobby.
I'd choose the Visionsat, also because of PVR capability.
SatelliteAV also offers great tech support.

I haven't dabbled in FTA...yet. While I have no opinion of either receiver, I'm leaning toward the Visionsat IV 200 and its PVR capabilities.
If I were to win, I would choose the Visionsat IV-200.
1. Because of the external hard drive PVR capabilities.
2. Because Iceberg endorses it.
3. Because Anole is pushing it.
4. Because I need a change in line of receivers.
Edit: Thanks again SatelliteAV for another great give-away!

I would love the opportunity to get into FTA satellite TV!

I have wanted to try a Mercury II receiver since they've been out, but I also want a Visionsat IV-200 since Iceberg let us read his Review on it. Since I have to choose between the two, I'll choose the Visionsat IV-200 for the PVR capabilities. Thanks SatelliteAV for this opportunity to win a Great FTA System!

I would choose the Visionsat IV 200 PVR Receiver because it gives you the capability of adding a Hard Drive via the USB I/O and then the ability to record programming.
THanks for the Opportunity,

I'd go with the Visionsat setup; I don't currently have PVR capability and that would be AWESOME to augment my FTA experience!
Thanks to Satellite Guys and SatelliteAV for the fantastic opportunity!
