[QUOTE="Captain Jack, post: 969586, member: 243342"] Hello, At the moment, I have a TBS5922SE card... it's OK but it's not really a patch on Skystar eXpress I had. The signal levels are erratic, especially below lock and it doesn't work very well with multistreams (no ability to select PLS code). So, I am on the hunt for a new one (and it must be a USB one since I don't have a PC to put PCI cards in). The TBS5925 seems to be the obvious choice but it's freaking expensive. At over 200 Great British ones, it seems a bit much. I still have a welder I want to buy... However, I could stretch to this if it really is the best one. My concern is the failure rate of its PCI counterpart, the 6925. Are these USB ones more reliable? The other choice is the Prof7500, which I know is a well regarded card. It's getting on a bit, though, and I am not sure what kind of capabilities it has. [USER=268811]@aceb[/USER] - I know you have have, would love to hear your opinion. Ideally, I would it to be able to do multistream with manually selectable PLS code, 16/32PSK and potentially ACM/VCM... at least as far as locking the signal. Thoughts/advice? [/QUOTE]
