I have a FTA system, one dish with 4 LNB's so I can get 4 satelites.

I recomend the Dreambox 7020 with digital video recorder. I can get every station plus I can record like TIVO.

Best part is you get several hundred in programming for FREE!:103631605

Viewsat platinum is the way to go for a FTA box.

I love my system I should of got it when directv went down. (That was a sad day) By the way Jeff yes its the same thing since I have two dishes that feeds me all of dishnet's programming. For the price I would recommand the system I mean come on at around 400 cdn installed you get all the ppv's hbo's, ESPN's basically everything aside from NBA league pass but like i said i could get most of the games on the fox sports local package. It doesn't have the MLB/NHL package (but it does have NCAA full court) however that isn't a big deal since I get those thru Roger's anyway.

As for it being stable for awhile its kinda like recommanding a sportsbook you can be 99% sure but you never really know. However when it does go down it's easy getting it back up. Most boxes have the next key already set in place (key is like the line of code that the box uses to show a picture) if you need to do it manually you just go to site like www.hashhu.com and its right there.

That is what im wondering about. My box doesn't pick up the 560's which are the NBA league pass channels. It is leaving me shaking my head. And yes I have all the fireware and ecm up too date. I'll ask my dish guy when I run into him.

If you're not getting those, your software doesn't have "autoroll" in it. It's what updates the transponders and they change every night with those league pass deals.

You could just do a rescan right now and everything should come in.:thumbsup2:
