I have re-discovered my Manhattan Plaza ST350 with a Dragon twin Firecrypt card, and wonder if the Dragon could use any other type of card and what results I could expect?
Thanks in anticipation.

Welcome to the forum :)

You might find it opens a few BISS channels, but the days of cams & cards opening dozens of pay tv services are long gone

Yes sad to say Manhattan Plaza ST350 is best resigned to FTA these days like many of my old receivers:-

Still in the cupboard as I cannot part with them as they are the pioneers of Blind Scan receivers,

TM1500Ci Super+
TM6900HD Super+
AZBox Premium+

Some of the others below that I have owned in the past & since passed on to my family & friends over the years for FreeSat :rolleyes:

For under £50 you can have the SX88+ HD + Multi-Stream & IP TV

Octagon SX88+ H.265 HEVC HD Multi-stream Digital Satellite + IPTV Receiver
This is a very user friendly receiver to set up :):Y
It also has a very good Blind Scan that is useful for live feeds.

Thanks for that. I was just interested in what I might use it for now, as you say it's a different world now compared to the 'old days' of two channel Sky broadcasts et al and today I use the internet for ALL my viewing needs. Much better selection and all for free if you have a decent broadband.
I had a few receivers, Pace, Echostar, Humax and Technomate. All practically redundant now but useful for most FTA services.
My Thanks to all who replied.
