Re: what receiver are you using in 2008

I'm using the CS 5000 & 6000. Just ordered a CS8100HD. I've had the viewsat ultra, liked it until I burned it up. Also had the pansat 2700 returned it and got the 3500 which was great at that time. Hope the 8100 works out if not then here comes the 9000

Re: what receiver are you using in 2008

testing the captiveworks 600 and the nfusion nova, that neosat ipro 2000 plus is looking pretty sweet though.

Believe it or not, still waiting with my neusat 6000 premium receiver for a new file. Can't afford to buy a new receiver and still getting all the locals (100 channels) and headline news and Cnn.

Re: what receiver are you using in 2008

I saw the Pansat logo but didn't have the 3500 listed. I am using it at present but hope to upgrade to the 9200.

Re: what receiver are you using in 2008

You guys have got to be kiddin me, no one comments on the Nfusion. Look here, I have 4 CW600s Prem. & I love them dearly but some how I managed to try out the Nfusion.....and it's all gravy. This Nfusion has never went down on me (ok you perverts. you know what I mean). I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I don't even use my CW in my bed room anymore & it takes me forever to load the kids CW because I don't even think about. I mean this Nfusion has really got me in another world.

Re: what receiver are you using in 2008

Have 2 VS Extremes and very happy. Wondering if I will have to go to the 9000 when analog goes away and all is HD, though. Coders are quick with VS and it is very user friendly.
