The only info I can find on purchase of the receiver is in Europe @ just over $400.00 USD plus shipping of course. I hold my course. For that kind of money I think a receiver that has sub ability is a better choice. Nothing against the Fortec offering and I understand they can not be produced for free but with no subs available in the US and the receiver itself is not capable of subs even if they were. Look to the DSR offerings and you have an excellent receiver with complete sub ability along with being able to add on HD capability.
The main reason I do/will not invest a great deal of money into a FTA receiver is FTA. No promises any of the channels will be here tomorrow. I enjoy every channel I get but reality is they all could disappear today while I am at work. I guess that is true of everything but with the DSR series receivers there is an industry built around them for programming. With the FTA receivers they are built around the programming industry.
