*** HELP JOHN WAYNE IS KILLING ME ***
OK I will admit I have been out of the loop for awhile.. My Coolsat 5000 went TU several months ago. Since that time I have been watching 1 channel on rabbit ears. The HD thing took place today in our area.. Now I am back to my husbands John Wayne movies. That will not keep a 30 year marraige together very long in this day and age.

My question is what is the best Coolsat to buy. The 7100 looks good as far as getting the bins in a timely fashion and the price is acceptable but, since I have not been keeping up with the times in the FTA world I am seeking some expert opinions as to the best system to buy at this time. Since I used the Coolsat 5000 for several years and am aquainted with the system per se, I thought I should stick to what I know best. Am I on the right track as purchasing the 7100 and is their other equipment I will need to purchase due to my TV not being HD compliant?



Any help would be greatly appeciated. This is my 1st post to a FTA website as I am a reader and can usually figure out what I need to know from reading the forums. In this case my situation needs IMMEDIATE attention as I am going crazy as there are onlly so many VHS and DVD movies I can watch.

I have really, really tried to find a forum for this question and cannot seem to find a place to ask this question since it is so open to all FTA products other than that I would prefer to stay with the Coolsat brand.

Thanks anyone that answers and have a good evening.

Coolsat to buy???..........None.I lost my trust on them,I agree 100% with Flexican post.I switched to SV & support within hrs.Coolsat commited suicide by stopping suppot to probably one of the best stbs.
Hope this help....good luck

I have the cs7100 and really like it. It is easy to use and you don't have to unhook it to put a new bin on it!! The one thing that sucks is it is still slow on good bins that don't freeze up. there for a while the bins was great, but all and all I am still happy with it.

Go to Sonicview 4000 forums and also the "how to section" and you can find all you need to know.The menu is fairly easy to follow and loading new bins with ubs a very fast and convenient one.Other sites offer instruccions also.
If you are replacing the CS, nothing to do the dishes.The settings are quite similar.I printed every instruccion I found and that way you can use them in the future.
The new bin for the SV4K is 253 and is posted at Bindepot.
Hope this help....good lock.
