hello skip i have read your thread i am a newbe to the satellite world. i am planning on buying the ultimate receiver + 90 cm dish. i am not very sure what i am getting is ok (as i have seen technomate receivers which are said to be top notch with loads of support even cracks) and just needed a second opinion and a bit of guidance i guess, as i have never seen the receiver in person. i noticed you mentioning there is not much support for it, and that it doesn't have a hdd fan can this be adopted???
