I too love my Pansat. However, I just now saw on your review of the Fortec, Pete, that it has S/PDIF output. 
Never knew that.
Never knew that.
It would help me if somebody could post close-up pictures of the differences between the clone and the real thing. Specifically the bottom panel--neither description in that past post about the clones really matched mine. From the other descriptions I'm pretty sure mine is authentic but I would rather be absolutely sure. Maybe Tommyboy you could start by posting a pic of the bottom of your receiver and if someone else here has a different looking panel they could post theirs and we could determine who has what.
There is a post around here that says the differences..
I have a Pansat 1500 but would like to get a Fortec, if for anything the AC3 output (1500 doesnt have that)

Fortec Ultra
I have a Fortec Ultra and I love it. Controls motor flawlessly to any satellite using USALS. It's right on target everytime. I find I spend more time watching FTA than watching my Dishnetwork in the living room. I especially like to watch the live feeds.
Yesterday, before a football game, the female presenter was talking about all kinds of things other than football and was cutting the fool with her coworkers. I should have recorded it. You never know what they are going to say next .

This is why i think i have a clone
Yes 1= I have noticeable difference in the color of the top cover when compared to the front panel’s color
NO 2=A vinyl protection sheet which is adhered to the top of the satellite receiver is missing ( It`s not missing)
NO 3=I have round-shape as the authentic model has.
NO 4=I have 3 on (bottom right )upward-punched, square shaped holes .
NO 5=no Sticker accompanied by small sticker attached indicating the month of the product’s manufacture (e.g. Sep. 2004 – (SB)).
there is a sticker there but it the same size as the painted one
?? 6=my Serial number 4G1 1930 ( Sticker on the BACK )
so what do i have here`s were i got it

You need to put that URL into the proper format (I guess I could take the time to manually search the item number) because just pasting it here truncates it and makes it DOA. Why not call Pansat and give them your serial number, they will tell you 100%. We would still only be guessing.
Well after manually searching your item number, his picture of the receiver and remote is exact as the ONE ON SKYVISION , so if that doesn't make clear as mud I don't know what does.
