Both of those receivers are good choices.

Either a SV360 Elite or the Viewsat Ultra (a good solid workhorse) are great options.

Those are some of the best receivers out there. I would start off in the newbie section. There is alot to learn, it kind of becomes a hobby. When you get a receiver let us know we will lend you a hand. Good Luck

Hi Steve, welcome to ABA! It looks like you've received some good advice already about the choice of a receiver. If HD is not important there are some very good ones to pick from at a reasonable price. Good luck and enjoy your stay.
