I'm looking to buy a Viewsat. I have a CL5000 but would like another receiver. Which one of the Viewsat models is the best? Any pros and cons? Thanx

If you can find it, I would recommend the Viewsat Ultra, thought it's a little pricey. Main reason for me is the USB port where you could use a usb jump drive to load mp3s, pictures and bins. Otherwise either the extreme or the platinum would be good. The extreme has a little more features like hardware blindscan and digital video line out but I have a platinum and it's great for me.

More importantly than WHICH model to buy, is to ensure U get a GENUINE Viewsat, and NOT a fake/imitation/clone of a genuine receiver!...

MANY sites are selling FAKES aka CLONES now....so buy from a well known ESTABLISHED site that also sponsors a DSS forums...The members at the forums will always answer questions regarding the sponsors and the forums owners will always help if there are any problems...Forum site owners do NOT want a bad reputation from bad sponsors selling Clones!...both of these sites have good reputations..both are forums sponsors at established sites..
