Looks pretty nice be good to hear how it opetrates!!!

[ufcwatcher]

I guess we can just sit and wait on how the support is.

[CsFTAForever]

Well...the way I read this, you'll need to buy a dongle as well as the receiver to get IKS..I'd heard/read that the price is somewhere around $200 for the receiver and you'll need to purchase a serial to Ethernet dongle..maybe another $90...

So besides the unknown support questions, will the price be attractive enough?

Cheers
