Hi guys,

Need some info. Which is a better receiver- Pantec or CaptiveWorks 600S? Pricewise there isn't much difference (about $20). Thanks in advance

on the captiveworks I refer you to http://forum.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/2/215032.html

read what LK say's their he is very knowledgeable on receivers. I just did a google and found VERRY LITTLE info, help, how to's on that receiver.

On the Pantec its a CLONE right LK? So I would stay away from it

The viewsat platinum is in my opion the easiest to use, easest to learn how to use, and best. You can get one for $139 SHIPPED on FleeBay from several seller NOW.

The Viewsat Ultra has so many features and it is by far the best. do not waste any time investing in a reciever that is going to give you problems, unless you want to learn.......The hard way that is.
