Re: scam or what?
Coolsat put out a dongle solution about a year ago. It didn't work very well, or at all. I bought one and was very disappointed. It's not a scam but it probably won't do you much good, at least at this point.

Re: scam or what?
Yup, Coolsat and Captain all have dongles. Whether they work or not is a different story.

Re: scam or what?
Iam like you beekermc i got one for cs7000.never did get it to work to its fullest. Which makes me wonder why norw didnt put some time in the dongles & make them work. Seems to me if you can make a hub work why not a dongle??

Re: scam or what?
Looks like someone trying to dump some old stock, EBay sellers are famous for getting rid of their junk. There are some legit ones but there is plenty of scams too.
