Well i have an old fortec star 5100 ultra in the bedroom with an old albar7 patch on it that has decided to start opening up TPS, multivision and a few other channels again .
lets hope they stay open longer than the support for the fortec did lol

TPS are using old key sets at the moment. They could disapprear again at any moment

For a beginner the TMs are easy to use.
The TM5200,5300,or 5400 should do OK for a little while yet.
