what do you currently have for fta receiver(s)?
the budget?
iks or non iks,or both supported?(not sure what iks is?)
what sat locations will you be going for?
pvr or non pvr?
do you have a certain 3rd party support group that interests you most over others?
do have any other "must have features" such has it NEEDS good: parental locks/favorites/channel master support/search by event etc.etc.

Viewsat Ultra baby

They all have perks over others.
Viewsat/Sonicview/Neosat are all great receivers. So is CaptiveWorks. Read up on receiver reviews on our homepage. There's great info there
