Best Receiver for a Newbie Please Help... Buying one tonight.
Hello all, I need some suggestions on the best receiver to buy for a newbie. Basically an easy one, also one with good support.
Please help as I want to purchase one tonight. I was looking at a coolsat 6000 or a 6100, but I have read some negative info on coolsat, so can anyone help me out?
Also, looking for a low priced box, just in case i blow it up playing with it.
Thanks in advance!

I'm buying a Sonicview 360 Elite and I have never owned an FTA reciever before. Looks like a great product, and the support seems to be great. One of the sponsers here Satmaniacs has them on sale too this week.

Sorry if I am dumb but I did a search and cannot find what IKS means. Also which box doesn't need updated very often?
