all i got to say is the Cool Sat 5000 Fta rocks. the receiver was easy to
hook up to my Bud. all works aok. no problems to report at this time.

Hey Billion

Congrats on the coolsat

We who have the BUD really have a head start by having a dish that is already on the belt! I also wanted to try out FTA and bought a viewsat extreme a few months ago. it was just a matter of hooking up a splitter and then finding which REAL sat names were the equiv of the 4dtv names. I hope the Coolsat manual was better than the Viewsat!

When I bought the Viewsat, I did not know of this forum. I have no serious gripes but after I look back, I probably would have done the coolsat 5000 instead.

My fisrt Sat scan yielded too many stations on G10R to count! Of course, that does not even include the languages that I do not speak!

I already bought a dedicated package for FTA but will hang out on the BUD until spring comes!
