[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 1013041, member: 243342"] I'll come straight out - the tuner in Vu+ Solo2 box, compared to F15, sucks. I've been monitoring signal on 4W all day today on the same frequency on both receivers at the same time, connected to two different TVs (but same dish/LNB) and Solo2 simply doesn't cut the mustard on fringe... I was often greeted with a broken picture or simply "Tune failed!" on Vu+ when it was absolutely fine on F15... From observations, I need at least 0.7 to 1.0dB more on Solo2 to get a lock and stable image than F15. Sooo.... I would like to see if there's a better E2 receiver out there with a better tuner. The Uno I had was on-par with F15 and had no qualms about it. The only issue is that it was somewhat slow and only had a single tuner. So... requirements: [LIST] [*]At least two tuners [*]Sensitive tuners! [*]A driver that will display real dB figure instead of a quasi one you get on Vu+ boxes (derived from %...whatever that is) [*]Potential ability to run SatDreamGr image ([USER=404726]@MCelliotG[/USER]) for TI2-MI capability [*]Preferably but not necessary at this point - a CI+ compatible CAM slot (restricts me to Mutant receivers) [*]Something that's stable, well supported and won't go out of business in 2 weeks [/LIST] Thanks!
