Hi london-guy,

The TM1500ci+ Super is quite a popular receiver atm although it has been out for quite a while. It is well supported and probably the most popular of th '1000' series.
However there is a new kid on the block -TM9100, which is a Linux based machine. From what I have read, this receiver is growing in popularity and is extremely well priced. Several members on here have purchased them and will be able to give their opinions.

Support is always a difficult one, just as is which bouquets will be open at any one time, and on which equipment.

Regards,

Yorks.

Hi London guy

I am quite new to this game but DO NOT get the 1600CI as I did if you want to use it for patching as it tends to suffer from a lot more glitches than other 1000 series model for some reason >

I am seriously thinking of changing it for a 1000 CI super and transfering multicrypt card reader I bought for it.

yes i would say buy a vantage receiver too as reviews i've read are saying its very good and can be patched

also it will be good to add new channels as they have a very quick blind scan function
