If you can wait for converted bins stick with it--If you want fast support get a Viewsat--Way better unit

The FLU is a great piece of equipment. However, time and technology has put many advanced features in the marketplace. Viewsat would be a good choice.

I've been facing the same dilema for some time now and have been watching for who seems to have the quickest support when files are needed. So far I've narrowed it down to Captive Works, Viewsat and Conaxsat. Thanks to this site and the coders who have provided continued support for my old workhorse FLU, I've been allowed plenty of time to watch and shop! So I'll continue to watch and eventually narrow it down to the "one" I will purchase. Many deserved Thanks to DSSRookie, Jvvh, Chancy and anyone else I've missed! Luv this place!!!

richie V said it best...I started with a FLU and currenty use a Viewsat/Platinum 2000. The Viewsat is the more reliable. Let me commend this site all the people who make it possible for novices such as me.
