Best HD FTA PVR?

[cowpres]

My Pansat 9200HD PVR receiver just died. I've been out of the loop for awhile. Just wondering what everyone thinks would be the best receiver to get to replace it with? I NEED a fast blind-scan as I do a lot of wild-feed searching. KU only. HD is a must and I'd like to receive the most FTA channels as I can. Thanks in advance. I was happy with the 9200HD until it died. I'd like PVR capabilities, but not really nessessary.

the HDmicro is probably the newest to hit the market check out the reviews area

yup the MicroHD

If you don't blind scan often my vote goes to the Optibox Anaconda. The Anaconda's picture quality and onscreen graphics are stunning and timer functions work as expected. I couldn't be happier.

How much does the Optibox cost? Any further progress promised on the blind scan? Keep us updated.

Going to a PC card with TS Reader opens new doors to blind-scanning and signal identification and it functions very well as a PVR such that you can even choose the file format of the record. But it is not for everyone. If I were to limit myself to a STB, I would probably experiment with the microHD.

Hello Gents
I recently purchased the Optibox Raptor, this receiver does not have any issues with blind scan at all, it works very good, just like the anaconda it has outstanding graphics and very good picture quality, so far, everything works, haven't try the timer functions yet.
it is capable of using to 2 tuners, Just got my second one on the mail and will try it out soon.
i am happy with it.
Regards.
