That's an easy one friend.
Get the CoolSat 6100 for a buck.
You will love the new features, including Auto Setup.
Support is good too.

* The 7100 cost more & records. (like Tivo)

Re: coolsat 6000

This coolsat 6000 is crap! Can you nice people please tell me where I can get a box that has a great reputation,easy to use,under $130.00 including tax,and that is a different brand? Please tell me what brand/model to get,other than coolsat,so I can get it up and going. I don't need any tivo like function or anything,just a plain jane box! Many Thanks to you all for your help!!!
