Message: <blockquote data-quote="satesco" data-source="post: 1157262" data-attributes="member: 297935">Perhaps I should have been more nuanced when talking about Novelsat. My passenger contact with Novelsat referred to the Novelsat card. That's what my talk was about.About the device you have, I can't say that even if the prices for them are going down on the "online" market or at different shops, I think it's not worth spending hundreds or thousands of euros to buy it. The strongest argument is the one made by @ralf11: the great difficulty of breaking the security barrier that the manufacturer puts to make access to the operator's software more protected, and if there are cases when a user outside the "system" succeeds, then he does it by asking the help of technicians in the network or by searching long and well on the internet for solutions to succeed, if.I don't know how you managed to get access, not to the device, but to the ability to decode a "Novelsat" feed.  And I don't care, because for most of those interested, even with the newest Novelsat, they won't be able to use it. After all, the "interface," connecting the device and the operator, will be missing.How many who bought a Novelsat at an acceptable price managed to use it how we use our receivers or cards, i.e., daily, frequently? Very few, and you can see this from the almost inexistent posts about feeds captured with Novelsat on the forums in this regard. They would be the first to let us often know what they managed to capture with this device bought for a few hundred or thousands of euros because the contractual obligation of the NDA does not bind them. There is another reason that keeps many of the reception enthusiasts, like many on this forum, to buy a Novelsat at an acceptable price (if a few hundred euros can fit into this category), and that is in the mind of every buyer, namely, the ratio between price and ... use. As you can see, I have changed the quality with another term, more appropriate in the case of good or frequent use. The most unpleasant part for many of them, and there are many of them here, is that there is an inverse ratio between their ardent passion for reception and the financial means at their disposal. How many of them/us would give hundreds/thousands of euros just for a few feed transmissions? Few would invest in such expensive equipment just for the love of it, or who work in the network or are involved in it.One could write pros and cons not so much about Novelsat as such, but about why people buy it nowadays and whether it is worth investing a lot of money for a product that is hardly affordable for many. And as we know, the harder it gets, the more interest increases. Is it worth investing in it or not? I think that's the main question.</blockquote>
