Is anyone travelling with a Mystar box or just the standard box. If mystar could you tell me your setup,I know it has 2 coax cables coming from your dish or lnb. Or should I stick to the standard box,which is easy to hook up.
Cheers.

Fitted austar for 12 years. Stay with the standard box, one of the older types is better and more robust. The my star boxes can be very tempermental and they were doing lots of downloads to the software version at night and if you miss one it may require a service call from a tech, with the old boxes you are able to check and down any updates with them and the software version isnt being upgrade any more I believe as they are putting all their resoucses into mystar cheers blaze

Goldcoaster. I agree with with blaze.
It is no harder to set up a dish with the dual coax, however the boxes themselves are much bigger and more susceptible to problems with movement.

You want to hope it doesnt break down, we were replacing them back in december with mystar decoders and just running the one cable in the hope that the customer would want to utilise the full benifet of the mystar once in the house, my money for austar.

Think I understand what your saying. If my old box breaks down they will replace it with a mystar box,and these boxes will run on 1 cable. So if this happens can I still travel with the mystar box on one cable. thanks blaze

The mystar decoder has a harddrive in it that basicly continuely spins and things in caravans etc have a habit of being bumped etc. They also run a lot hotter and should have quite a large free area around them, we had a lot of problems with them when they got a bit warmer than normal when place in normal tv cabinets. When I worked for the company I could have had one at no cost but declined and kept my old standar decoder. cheers blaze
