Bird is alot quieter these days but Baghdad TV is booming in

Salahaddin TV with a Xmas Tom and Jerry Cartoon.

Also a promo for "Afak" possibly a news channel.

And?

Please dot insult me or think its funny for the choice of receivers I use, TM's are easy to use and well supported, I would not call 75% weak what so ever.

I think sid is just stating his own personal opinion here, hes been at this game a long while and is well respected on this forum for his knowledge in this hobby

I'm sure it wasn't his intention to offend you in anyway Remlap

Hes just on a quest to convert everyone to buy a Vantage which by his opinion is very good receiver although maybe not for everyone. I think in time when the Vantage has more of a following and more support we will see more and more people using them on this forum

I to use a Technomate which OK granted is a good receiver for certain things where as the Vantage is better for others like blind search and pulling in weak signals so its just down to preference of the individual user
