Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi,

Some of our members found that they had to chuck out their satellite TV decoders as the gov. in its wisdom decided to give us a different system, so we had to buy new so-called VAST receivers. The advantage is 1080i reception and as a loss, the loss of Al Jazeera.

I hate throwing out this old decoder or using it as a door stop or boat anchor, so I would like to ask if there is anything useful electronically inside those things.
