Shifting the topic slightly. This thread reminded me of something I've been curious about.
Sadoun USED to have a fairly wide variety of different FTA receivers of different brands, including
Twinhan. Over the years, these brands have evaporated to the extent that no longer do they have the Twinhan FTA receivers, or any other brands except for Fortec. I can see the logic behind sticking to one brand of STB, although I would have chosen one that had more of a variety of capability {ie
HD, etc }, however I don't see the logic of not having at least one of the several brands of PCI card receivers, and USB receivers {although the poor performance of the Twinhan USB might be a reason for getting out of that business }. But Twinhan is still as good as it gets for PCI cards, and they now advertise a DVB-S2 card which I don't know anything about, but it sounds interesting.
I have to wonder if it has something to do with the expansion of the business into Dishnet/DTV... ?????
