My System: Technomate TMS-1500 CI+ "patched" receiver, 90cm p/f 36v motorised dish, Inverto C120 0.3db LNB, Moteck V-Box 2, Packard Bell 6052 XP Home computer, Toshiba A60 laptop, and lots of Russian Vodka !

That's very good RW, it's a bit of a shame that my graphics card is not up to the job, but still very good.
Also very handy if you want to know latitude & longitude of any given area, and also for elevation.
I am 48 feet above sea-level, now taking global warming into account I am going to work out when my bungalow will be a beach front property.
