emulate or atmega?

amkedi · 03-11-2004

I used to emulate dish with an old 3000 but it stopped taking downloads so i turned into a bell with no major problems for two years now. I tried dish with atmega and had difficulties with my 301 so it too is on bell. I just got a 2700 and was wondering if it would be easier on me to emu since i know how to set it up or try atmega 0r dssrev card. I don't mind working out the problems but every nite starts to feel like work, so which is lower maintenance for dish. Hopefully someone feels the same as me and can save me a little time and money with some suggestions, thanks.

I would go with the Emu for dish as when they do hit they seem to hit the Atmegas more....emu seems to stay up alot longer.
Forget about the DSSREV (support is not good for this card).

Thanks DARNAT, that's what I was leaning towards, especially with an avr sitting in the drawer collecting dust. I'll let you know how it turns out.
