[QUOTE="nelson_b, post: 821692, member: 296628"] hi - i,v had the M3 for a while now - but i,v only used it in a limited way up to present - just as a blind search tool on my 1.2 c.m. dish setup - the dish is moved using an aged T.M.5500 DAPCI and the M3 takes a straight feed from a twin k/u L.N.B on that dish - so i,v never used it on a motor or diseqc switch - i find the remote response a bit slow compared to other receivers i have - but its not really a problem - - and as was mentioned in another thread about the F3 the clock has a mind of its own --l.o.l , the picture quality on HD channels is very good -- blind search is fast and on the whole - accurate i have on a number of occasions now , accidentally left the box switched on (not in standby)and it did not get unduly hot - even after being left on for 4 days one time. i did get a bit of a surprise the other week when i tried a firmware update - that turned out to be totally in - (possibly )arabic - and had one hell of a job finding the u.s.b. menu again in order to put back the original backup file ----- but i got there in the end all in all i,m happy with the m3 especially at the price i paid for it -- but as i say its use for me so far has been mostly as k/u a blind search tool . cheers nelson.b.
